US President Trump announced the launch of a “gold card” visa this week. Foreigners only need to spend 1 million US dollars to obtain permanent residency in the US and a quick naturalization route. This qualification is in line with the existing EB-1 or EB-2 immigrant visa categories. An International Monetary Fund study found that similar investment visa programs can increase government revenue, but usually only apply to small island countries where visa fees account for a large share of government funding. America's apparently “profitable” visa policy was not approved by some experts. In addition to questioning the effectiveness of the law, they also pointed out that this policy did not bring the economic benefits expected by the Trump administration.
