As published: a nonrefundable processing fee, successful vetting, and a gift to the U.S. government, after which the applicant proceeds through an existing employment-based immigrant category subject to its own eligibility rules, admissibility and visa availability. A nonrefundable processing fee of fifteen thousand United States dollars per person, successful vetting, and then a gift of one million United States dollars paid by the applicant to the U.S. government, or two million where a corporate sponsor gives on the person's behalf. The applicant must still be eligible for lawful permanent residence, admissible, and have an available visa; the described process includes an application, further USCIS instructions, vetting, and the gift when instructed. Begin with immigration history, proposed EB-1 or EB-2 basis, current residence, admissibility facts, family details, and official instructions. The Gold Card is an official program built around a gift to the U.S. government plus a processing fee, attached to an immigrant framework described on the official site; EB-5 is an at-risk investment in a job-creating business.
