Response to Suspension Inquiry or Letter of Suspension

Please enter the serial number of the pending application for which you wish to respond to a Suspension
Inquiry or Letter of Suspension. Then, click on the CONTINUE button, below. NOTE: You must
respond to a Suspension Inquiry by the deadline indicated in the Suspension Inquiry. If the deadline in the
Suspension Inquiry is not known, please access the USPTO website at TSDR System
(http://tsdr.uspto.gov/), insert the application serial number, and view the applicable prosecution history
event.
Although not required, you may use this form to respond to an actual Letter of Suspension, to
present arguments in favor of removal of the application from suspension. The Applicant's election
not to present argument during suspension will not affect the applicant's right to present argument later
should a refusal, in fact, issue at a later point. If a refusal does issue, the applicant must respond by the
deadline indicated in that Office action.Within this form, you may also enter additional data to satisfy an
existing requirement(s) or other matter if appropriate, for example, to amend the listing of
goods/services/the nature of the collective membership organization or enter a disclaimer.
TIMEOUT WARNING: You're required to log back in after 30 minutes of inactivity
(https://www.uspto.gov/page/teas-help#inactivity). This ensures the USPTO complies with mandatory
federal information security standards (https://doi.org/10.6028/NIST.SP.800-63b) and protects user
information. After 25 minutes of inactivity, you will be prompted to continue your session. If you do not
continue within 5 minutes, the session will end, you will be logged out of your USPTO.gov account, and
you will lose any unsaved data in the form. Please have all of your information ready before you start.
Required fields are indicated with an asterisk (*).

TO ACCESS THE RESPONSE FORM:
STEP 1: CHECK STATUS.
To use this form, the "Current Status" of your application must be either "An Office action suspending further
action on the application has been sent (issued) to the applicant" or "A suspension inquiry has been sent
(issued) to the applicant." Use the Trademark Status & Document Retrieval (TSDR) (https://tsdr.uspto.gov) to
confirm the status before proceeding. If the application is not in the correct status, you must wait until the
status is updated (usually 48-72 hours after receiving an email notice that an Office action has issued).
Otherwise, you will receive an error message when you click the "Continue" button at the bottom of the page.
STEP 2: ENTER APPLICATION SERIAL NUMBER BELOW OR ACCESS PREVIOUSLY FILLEDOUT/SAVED FORM.
