The Gold Card is a visa program announced by presidential proclamation on September 19, 2025. It is designed to facilitate the immigration of foreigners who make a significant financial contribution to the United States. The program will be administered by the Department of Commerce in coordination with the Department of State and the Department of Homeland Security.
- For individuals, the required contribution is $1 million.
- For companies or organizations sponsoring an individual, the minimum contribution is $2 million.
These contributions will be considered evidence of exceptional business capacity and national benefit, allowing for a fast-tracked process to obtain an immigrant visa. The funds will be used to promote industry and commerce within the country.
In this context, immigration lawyers in Miami recommend that investors and families interested in the program seek specialized guidance before starting the process, as the right legal strategy can make a difference in approval. Likewise, consulting immigration lawyers in Miami ensures applicants are informed in advance about possible exceptions and requirements tied to this new immigration category.
The specific regulations to implement this program have not yet been published, so further clarity is expected in the coming months. We will keep our clients informed about updates and procedures once the government issues the official guidelines.
Be very careful!
Beware of notaries, immigration consultants or anyone who is not qualified and prepared in these matters. Always seek the advice and services of an immigration attorney for your immigration processes and procedures.
