The USPTO is seeking to launch MyUSPTO, an optional online customer portal, which initially would serve as a source for customer contact and correspondence information, and would eventually allow customers to create a portfolio of information that can be used with a single login for other USPTO transactions, like electronic fee payments. The USPTO has not announced a launch date for the MyUSPTO portal.
Pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the USPTO is requesting public comment to, among other things, evaluate:
- Whether the collection of information related to MyUSPTO is necessary for the USPTO's proper performance.
- The accuracy of the USPTO's estimate of the burden of the proposed collection of information.
Public comments are due by June 4, 2013.
