Contents.  \nO-1B Petition: Enclosed please find:  \n1. I-907 with Form [G-1650 for ACH payment [from a U.S. bank](from a U.S. bank) account or G-1450 for credit/debit/pre-paid credit card payment] to pay the $2,805 premium processing fee [if premium processing];  \n2. I-129 with Form [G-1650 for ACH payment [from a U.S. bank](from a U.S. bank) account or G-1450 for credit/debit/pre-paid credit card payment] to pay the [TBD] filing fee [list the appropriate amount depending on petitioner status and classification being sought];  \n3. Copy of petitioner’s IRS determination letter proving 501(c)(3) status or most recent IRS Form 941 or Employer’s Quarterly Federal Return [for petitioners seeking a reduced filing and/or Asylum Processing fee]  \n4. Labor consultation from [TBD], the appropriate labor organization for [type of artist](optional: and peer consultation from [appropriate peer organization]);  \n5. Passport biographical data page to facilitate security check;  \n6. Supporting documentation, beginning with an explanation as to which regulatory criteria for proving extraordinary ability are being addressed and what evidence supports each criterion:  \nTab A. Background information on the petitioner;  \nTab B. Bio and discography of the beneficiary, with covers of some of artist’s CD  \nrecordings and documentation of special awards, certificates, or commendations conferred upon the beneficiary along with explanations of their significance, as required;  \nTab C. A selection of reviews of the beneficiary, including complete translations of any foreign language articles and certificate of translation;  \nTab D. A selection of playbills and other PR materials relating to the beneficiary;  \nTab E. Copies of the beneficiary’s prior O-1B approval notices or prior O-1B visas;  \nTab F. Contract with the beneficiary.  \nII. Special Considerations.  \n[In this section, raise any special issues you wish to draw to the attention of the USCIS examiner. First, and foremost, would be any timing considerations you wish to bring to the attention of the Premium Processing unit. Also, speak up here if you are relying on the O-1B exception to the requirement of a new labor consultation because you are providing one obtained for similar services within 2 years of the proposed entry date. Other issues you might wish to address here are requests for waivers ofthe labor consultation requirement if there is no appropriate labor organization. explanation of gaps in the itinerary during which the beneficiary will be performing outside the U.S., explanation ofwhy the requested validity dates may extend beyond the duration/term of the contract, etc. Recently, some petitioners are reiterating in this section if it is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) or small employer and thus eligible to access a reduced filing fee. For any petitioners that are doing so, be sure to include a physical copy of the necessary proof of either 501(c)(3) or small employer status as directed by USCIS]  \nIII. Discussion.  \n[In this section, be sure to spend more time detailing the top accomplishments of the beneficiary and providing narrative detail that articles alone may lack, such as explaining the prestige and reputation of venues, media sources, prizes, and the like. Recent processing trends are indicating USCIS adjudicators may not be reading enclosed evidence thoroughly","cbCainkJ7qdEULmD","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCainkJ7qdEULmD","pdf",272512,"English","# Sample Cover Letter\n## I.
