Explanation :
The article 'the' is used when the noun is specific and known to the speaker as well as the listener. The noun 'visa' is not specified as to which visa and it's been mentioned for the first time here, so 'the' isn't the correct article. An indefinite article, either 'a' or 'an' is required. 'An' is used for nouns beginning with a vowel, 'visa' begins with a consonant, and hence 'a' is the correct article for 'visa'.

Explanation :
'A' is an indefinite article used before consonant sounds. 'An' is an indefinite article used before vowel sounds. 'The' is a definite article used before definite/specific things/superlatives etc. 'The' is also used before adjectives which represent the entire class and not a specific person. Here, the adjective 'rich' is used without the noun and the adjective represents the entire class of rich people, not one specific rich person. The adjective is used as a noun in this case.
