H1B - Renewal

[glb]

Dear Freinds,

My H1B is up for renewal. I contacted my lawyer and he is charging about $1000 as fees. I was thinking of filling myself.

Questions:
1. Do I need to file labor application first OR Can I use the earlier LCA OR I do not need at all?

2. What is the fees? I heard it is changed.

3. Do I need to submit the latest payslips?

4. What company related documents I need to attach.

Folks, I am sorry I might be asking some silly questions, but this is my first experience and seeking you gurus help.

Please respond at you earliest.

Thanks in advance.

Self applied H1 is difficult.
1. Yes most probably you need LCA. see here

3. Yes
4. Letter from company requesting H1, proof of employment.
LCA and H1 are applied by the company, not by you.
