Donald Trump's Gold Card visa needs an individual to pay straight $5 million to get US citizenship while the administration is concentrating on sweeping the 'illegal' ones out, APA reports.
While the program triggered discussions on whether it is too expensive for US citizenship, commerce secretary Howard Lutnick said he sold 1,000 Gold Cards a day.
"There are 37 million people in the world who are capable of buying the card... The president thinks we can sell a million," Lutnick said speaking on All-In Podcast.
Lutnick said Trump got the idea of the Gold Card during a meeting he had with investor John Paulson. Lutnick was then taken in the loop to figure out how to do it. Elon Musk is building the software, Lutnick said.
