Current terms are US$15,000 nonrefundable processing per person, then US$1 million individual principal or US$2 million corporate principal gift after successful vetting. Each eligible joining family member adds US$15,000 and US$1 million. Corporate maintenance is 1% annually and transfer is 5% including a new check. Verify additional visa or medical charges; a private yield claim does not change these official purposes.
Anyone comparing this framework with an investment category should compare total outlay together with recoverability, since money given and money invested are not equivalent expenditures however similar the headline numbers appear. Follow verified official instructions, and assess tax and financial consequences separately rather than importing proposed programme benefits or an investment repayment assumption. The programme amounts are stated in United States dollars and do not vary by where an applicant lives, while local costs such as currency conversion, domestic professional fees, and travel are the household's own expenses rather than different programme pricing.
