A nonrefundable processing fee of US$15,000 per person, completion of vetting, and then a gift to the U.S. government of US$1 million where the individual applies or US$2 million where a corporate sponsor stands behind the application. The route operates through the existing EB-1 and EB-2 classifications rather than as a new category.
A fee, a vetting stage, a gift, and an existing classification underneath
Set the elements out in order, because the order is part of the answer. The processing fee is paid per person and is not returned, whatever the outcome. Vetting follows, and it is a genuine stage rather than a formality; nothing about paying the fee guarantees passing it.
The gift is made afterwards, and its direction is from the applicant to the U.S. government. Because it is a gift, there is no ownership, no return and no mechanism by which it comes back.
Underneath all of this sits an existing immigrant classification, so admissibility and visa availability continue to apply in the ordinary way. Rashid should also be clear about what the program does not require: no business plan, no employees, no capital at risk in an enterprise. Those belong to a different route entirely and should not be imported into this one.
