President Donald Trump has proposed a new “gold card” visa program, allowing wealthy individuals to obtain U.S. residency and a path to citizenship by investing $5 million. This initiative aims to replace the existing EB-5 visa program, which currently requires a lower investment.
At Sternon Group, we strongly advise our clients to apply for the EB-5 program right now, while the investment amount is still at the reduced rate of $800,000. The EB-5 program is governed by the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA), specifically INA § 203(b)(5). This section outlines the criteria for the EB-5 investor visa category, which offers a path to permanent residency through investment in the U.S.
Here's why acting now is crucial:
1. Protect Yourself from Future Increases: With the potential rise in investment requirements, applying now secures your chance to invest at the lower amount. This could save you a significant amount of money.
2. Grandfathering Regulations: By submitting your application before any regulatory changes by USCIS, you can benefit from being “grandfathered” in. This means your application will be processed under the current rules, protecting you from any future changes.
3. Uncertainty of the Gold Card Program: The Gold Card program carries a high level of uncertainty because its regulations by USCIS are not yet clearly defined. In contrast, the EB-5 program has a proven track record with clear, streamlined regulations, eliminating much of the uncertainty for investors.
4. Peace of Mind: Securing your spot now means you won’t have to worry about potential delays or changes that could complicate your investment journey.
Don’t miss out on this opportunity! Contact Sternon Group to begin your EB-5 application and secure your future in the U.S. under the most favorable conditions.
