Hi i was working with my employer since 4yrs and now time came to file H-1B and he is asking me to pay H-1B fee saying its company policy.Am i supposed to pay H-1B fee,i thought employers are supposed to pay.I am planning to take this case to DOL.what do you think.?
Q4. To which H-1B petitions does the new fee apply?
A4. H-1B petitioners subject to the new law must submit the fee with any H-1B petition filed:
To seek initial nonimmigrant status for an alien described in subparagraph (H)(i)(b) of INA section 101(a)(15), or
To obtain authorization for an alien having that status to change employers.
The new fee does not apply to extension requests filed by the same petitioner for the same employee.

A8. The petitioner, not the beneficiary, should pay the additional fee, where it applies.
