Trump's $1 million ‘gold card’ visa granted to only 1 person — Lutnick says ‘hundreds in queue’

Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick said only one person has received approval for the 'gold card' visa, which allows foreigners to pay at least $1 million to live and work in the US legally. He stated that hundreds of applicants are in the queue, and the program's results are pleasing. The visa program is meant to entice foreign talent and fill federal coffers, with each applicant paying a $15,000 fee on top of their million-dollar payment.
