The United States has officially launched a new investment-based immigration pathway commonly referred to as the $1 Million Gold Card visa program. Designed for qualified foreign investors seeking lawful U.S. residency, this program offers a direct, compliant option for individuals and families planning long-term access to the U.S. for business, education, and lifestyle purposes.
At Bogin, Munns & Munns, our immigration attorneys are closely monitoring and advising clients on how this new program works—and whether it is the right fit for their goals.
“Investment-based immigration is complex, especially with new programs like the Gold Card. Our team helps investors understand their options, prepare properly, and move forward with confidence under U.S. immigration law.”
— Spencer Munns
What Is the $1M Gold Card Visa Program?
The Gold Card visa program is a U.S. residency-through-investment option that allows eligible foreign nationals to apply for lawful permanent residence by making a qualifying investment of approximately $1 million.
Key features of the program include:
- Investment-based eligibility
- Lawful permanent residence for the applicant and qualifying family members
- Consular processing only (applications must be completed outside the United States)
- Strict compliance and documentation requirements
Unlike many other immigration options, this program is intended for individuals who are planning ahead—not those already living in the U.S. seeking to adjust their status.

Why Consular Processing Matters
One of the most important aspects of the Gold Card program is that all applicants must apply through a U.S. consulate abroad. This means:
- Applicants cannot apply from within the United States
- Careful country-specific preparation is essential
- Interview strategy and documentation must align with consular standards
This is where experienced legal guidance becomes critical. Even well-qualified investors can face delays or denials without proper preparation.
