Einstein Visa (EB1-A category)
I am currently a postdoctoral scholar in the USA. However, I thought one needed a permanent tenure-track position to qualify for the EB-1 visa category. Is that not so?
The Einstein visa (EB1-A category) is different from the outstanding researcher or professor (EB-1B)
category. A job offer is not necessary for an EB1-A petition.

Hi. My GC was filed by my office but Rajiv provided very valuable support and inputs during the process. He is very knowledgeable and is always ready to help out.
