Investing.com -- The Trump administration is contemplating a premium service that would charge tourists and other non-immigrant visa applicants $1,000 for an expedited interview appointment, according to a report from Reuters, citing an internal State Department memo and a U.S. official. This comes in addition to the existing $185 processing fee that individuals seeking to enter the U.S. on non-immigrant visas are required to pay. The proposed service, which could be introduced as a pilot program as early as December, would allow certain applicants to move to the front of the line for visa interviews. This initiative has not been previously disclosed and aligns with President Donald Trump’s vision of a "gold card" system, which would offer U.S. citizenship for a $5 million fee, providing quicker access to those who can afford it. However, the State Department’s legal team has expressed concerns about the legality of the proposed fee for visa appointments. The memo states that there is a "high risk" that the fee would be dismissed by the White House budget office or deemed illegal in U.S. courts. According to the memo, setting a fee above the cost to provide the service is in violation of established Supreme Court precedent.
