They are terms of different proposed arrangements, not a choice made solely by comparing the bank balance. The principal gift is currently US$1 million individually or US$2 million corporately after successful vetting and instructions.
Compare the complete obligations
Add the nonrefundable US$15,000 processing per person and applicable family amounts. Corporate annual 1% and transfer 5% terms also matter. Obtain separate advice for business accounting; do not infer a deduction or refund from the immigration terms.
Corporate terms include published 1% annual maintenance and 5% transfer with new background review and actual programme conditions; a recruitment substitution is not automatically a completed programme transfer. Verify the applicable instructions and any additional charges instead of assuming the gift is the entire lifetime cost. Describe the money accurately before comparing routes: the Gold Card payment goes from the applicant to the U.S. government and is not capital placed in a business. A corporate sponsor making the gift on someone’s behalf does so in the published amount of two million rather than one. A broker's brochure that quotes different amounts, promises timelines or describes the gift as refundable is describing something other than the program.
