Trump Gold/Platinum Cards

The Trump Administration has announced the availability of new programs for lawful permanent residence for those of you willing to pay either approximately $1 or $5 million dollars to the government (plus fees).

If interested, USCIS has made the Form I-140G available on its website which seems to only work for the "Gold Card." Don't worry, you can be put on the wait list for the Platinum Card.

It appears that the main benefit of the program is speed, at least for the Gold Card. However, the Platinum Card offers permanent residency for up to 270 days per year without being subject to taxes on non-U.S. income.
