Patent Application & Approval Process Explained My e-mail to the USPTO.... Gentlemen, How long does it take for a patent to be issued from filing date? Can the process be expedited or may the filer request fast track status? Thanks, Tom Reply... It is difficult to predict exactly how long it will take for an application to mature into a registration, because there are so many factors that can affect the process. Generally, an applicant will receive a filing receipt approximately six months after filing. The filing receipt will include the serial number of the application. All future correspondence with the USPTO must include this serial number. You should receive a response from the Office within seven months from filing the application. However, the total time for an application to be processed may be anywhere from almost a year to several years, depending on the basis for filing, and the legal issues which may arise in the examination of the application. Current status information on trademark applications and registrations may be obtained by dialing: 703 305-8747, or by accessing Trademark Applications and Registrations Retrieval (TARR) database on the Office's World Wide Web site at tarr.uspto.gov. Applicants should check on the status of their pending applications every six months. For additional information on trademarks, you can visit the Trademark Web site at uspto.gov. For additional information, you may contact General Information Services Division (GISD) and request to be transferred to the Trademark Assistance Center (TAC). TAC representatives are available Monday through Friday (except federal holidays) from 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time. General Information Services Division (GISD) provides customers with a wide variety of general information and documents pertaining to patents and trademarks. GISD also provides answers to technical questions regarding the electronic business systems available on the USPTO Intranet site. You may contact GISD at 800 786-9199 or 703 308-4357. Best O'Luck, Tom
