Trump Gold Card Visa: $1M-$5M Entry, Costly for Indians

• Donald Trump announced a new "Trump Gold Card" visa program to attract talent and investment to the US.
• The program offers a direct path to citizenship for "evidently qualified individuals" and helps retain top talent.
• This visa falls under EB-1 and EB-2 categories, targeting highly skilled professionals like researchers, professors, and industry leaders.
• The Gold Card is priced at $1 million for regular applicants and $5 million for a premium option, requiring full cash payment.
• Due to its high cost and strict payment terms, the visa is largely inaccessible to most Indians, despite its potential benefits for the US economy.

Why It Matters: Trump's new Gold Card visa makes US immigration prohibitively expensive for Indians.
