FAQs Patent Questions

Question:Is there any danger that the USPTO will give others information contained in my application while it is pending?

Answer:
Most patent applications filed on or after November 29, 2000, will be published 18 months after the filing date of the application, or any earlier filing date relied upon under Title 35, United States Code. Otherwise, all patent applications are maintained in the strictest confidence until the patent is issued or the application is published. After the application has been published, however, a member of the public may request a copy of the application file.

Question:Amendments to drawings filed after allowance are entered by the office of publications.

Answer:
Amendments to drawings filed after allowance are entered by the Office of Publications. If such amendment is forwarded to the examiner, the examiner should forward or return the application to the Office of Publications.

Question:How are patents accessible in the Electronic Official Gazette - Patents?

Answer:
Patents are accessible by patent number, classification, a range of classes, patent type, and patentee name. There are also indexes by geographic location of the inventor, both by state and country.

Inventors may apply for one of two types of patent applications: (1) A non-provisional application, which begins the examination process and may lead to a patent and (2) A provisional application, which establishes a filing date but does not begin the examination process.
