The USPTO is not simply revising pre-existing oath or declaration forms (PTO/SB/51, PTO/SB/52) because the changes to 35 U.S.C. 115 in the AIA do not apply to applications filed prior to September 16, 2012. Thus, the USPTO plans to provide new forms for use with applications filed on or after September 16, 2012, but still continue to make the existing inventor's oath or declaration forms (legacy forms) available until applications filed prior to September 16, 2012, are no longer pending before the USPTO. The forms added to this information collection are as follows: PTO/SB/AIA05 Reissue Application Declaration by the Inventor; PTO/SB/AIA06 Reissue Application Declaration by the Assignee; and PTO/SB/AIA07 Substitute Statement in Lieu of an Oath or Declaration for Reissue Patent Application (35 U.S.C 115(d) and 37 CFR 1.64).
