On September 19, 2025, following his February 25, 2025 remarks previewing a residency pathway for high-net-worth individuals, President Donald Trump issued an Executive Order directing the Departments of Commerce, State, and Homeland Security to establish a new immigrant visa program within 90 days. The initiative, now known as the “Trump Gold Card” program, will allow foreign nationals to obtain lawful permanent resident status in the United States based on a significant financial contribution: at least US $1 million by an individual applicant, or US $2 million when paid by a corporation on behalf of an individual.
