US President Donald Trump is sending back illegal immigrants to their country and has launched a campaign for this. On the other hand, Trump has come up with an offer for the rich under which they can become eligible to acquire US citizenship by spending a huge amount of money. Let us know what the offer is and how it will affect Indians?

Emphasis on increasing investment and employment

Trump announced the Gold Card plan on Wednesday. He said that immigrants can get a permit to stay in America by paying a fee of 50 lakh dollars. This plan will replace the current 35-year-old EB-5 visa program. Under the EB visa program, any person can get a permit to stay in America by investing 10 lakh dollars.

How different is Gold Card from EB-5

There is a huge difference between the two types of visas. Under the current EB-5 program, foreign investors have to invest between 8 and 10 lakh dollars in US companies and create at least 10 new jobs. Apart from this, one has to wait for 5-7 years for a green card.
