I got my NLV in May 2021, successfully completed my first renewal in 2022 and am due my final renewal in May this year.
The admin costs are minimal (less than €20) and I was only required to prove my 'means of maintenance' (but remember this is for 2 years) and proof of my private healthcare. There was no request for a police certificate or a medical certificate. I used the same solicitor who I had used for my NLV, as, although I normally feel confident & competent with dealing with bureaucracy, documents, etc. my Spanish isn't great and I feel that these applications are too important to risk making a mistake. This was completed at the Foreigner's Office Police Station in Murcia City.
Hope this helps!
