Applicants use this collection to apply for the examination for registration and to demonstrate their eligibility to be a registered attorney or agent before the USPTO and the Office of Enrollment and Discipline uses it to determine the qualifications of individuals entitled to represent applicants before the USPTO in the preparation and prosecution of applications for a patent. The USPTO is proposing to update the current Enrollment forms to include (1) primary e-mail and (2) secondary e-mail after the correspondence/business and daytime area code and phone number on the Change of Address and PTO-158, 158A, and 158T forms. The USPTO is also proposing to update the current Data and Reinstatement and Data Sheets PTO 107A, 107R, 107RR and 107S to add e-mail addresses and a few other fields. There is no expected change in the burden estimates.
