Use the actual official payment instructions; a request for information should not be converted into an invented payment demand.
Reconcile action and recipient
Keep processing payments, instructed gifts and private assistance fees separate. The published programme amounts do not justify sending an extra payment merely because someone claims it will speed the answer. The nonrefundable processing charge is US$15,000 per person; after vetting when instructed, the principal gift is US$1 million individually or US$2 million corporately. Family additions and continuing corporate conditions are separate.
No; identify the official arrangement actually proposed and verify its current charges rather than mixing individual and corporate descriptions. Tax treatment, corporate authority, employment terms, transfer provisions, and the consequences if the employee leaves still require advice before money moves. The official Gold Card process uses the payment sequence stated on its current program page; EB-5 and E-2 apply their own capital-at-risk and commitment rules, so the Gold Card payment sequence must not be imported into those investment routes. Government fees, filing locations, visa availability, and procedural instructions can change, so confirm them from the current official source before money is committed or travel is booked. Confirm the official instruction, the individual payer and the amount before a transfer; do not recast it as an investment or assume payment itself supplies status.
