Follow the O-1B process, but remember that for labor consultations, there are no special forwarding procedures available from U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) and no right to rely on a prior labor consultation letter, even if a consultation was obtained for the group within the past two years.

Attach an alphabetized beneficiary list in the same place as the O-2 petition, any consultations, then copies of each beneficiary's passport biographical data page. Because of the 75 percent rule (and exceptions), the beneficiary list must include information on the date each beneficiary began his/her association with the group. The more specific the data, in terms of exact date, month or year, the better. The petitioner's supporting letter should contain the same basic information as the O-1B, but remember to explain any desired exceptions to the 75 percent rule, based either on illness, exigency, or augmentation.
