Trump's $1M Gold Card Visa Fails to Attract Interest Amid Legal Uncertainty
- •Donald Trump's $1 million "Gold Card" visa program is struggling to attract applicants, particularly from India.
- •Immigration experts cite vague framework, legal uncertainty, and lack of a clear path to permanent residency as key deterrents.
- •Lawyers like Keshav Singhania, Poorvi Chothani, and Shilpa Malik are advising clients towards the established EB-5 investor visa.
- •The Gold Card offers permanent legal residency for a flat $1 million fee, contrasting with the EB-5's investment and job creation requirements.
- •Demand for the EB-5 visa remains strong, especially from India and China, which account for most applicants.
Why It Matters: Trump's $1M Gold Card visa faces weak demand due to legal ambiguities; EB-5 remains preferred.
