No. The published gift belongs to the Gold Card arrangement and should not be exported as a universal price for other immigration categories.
Attach each number to its actual program
Under current Gold Card terms, an individual principal has US$15,000 nonrefundable processing and the post-vetting US$1 million gift. Identify the real recipient and purpose of any different proposed expenditure rather than blending unrelated figures.
Only following successful vetting is the applicant asked to make a US$1 million gift to the United States. The program relies on EB-1 or EB-2 classification, not EB-5; never place its gift in an EB-5 investment column. Every immigration category publishes its own requirements under its own legal authority, and a figure that applies under one category, such as a treaty-based classification like E-2 or an investor classification like EB-5, has no bearing on what a separate program requires, even where the categories are sometimes discussed together. Keeping a single reference sheet per program, each with its own sourced figures and a note of where they came from, prevents a number copied from one context from quietly reappearing in an unrelated one. Before applying any amount to a specific plan, trace it back to the program it actually describes, since two categories can share general vocabulary about investment or classification while operating under completely separate statutes and agencies. Treating every dollar figure as program-specific, rather than as a general industry benchmark, keeps planning accurate as programs are updated at different times and on different schedules.
