(1) Read the official letter or notice.

(2) Direct questions about the contents of the official letter or notice to the assigned staff member identified in the letter. Direct questions about navigating USPTO electronic forms, the USPTO website , the application process, the status of your application, and/or whether there are outstanding deadlines or documents related to your file to the Trademark Assistance Center (TAC).

The response must be received by the USPTO before midnight Eastern Time of the last day of the response period.

GENERAL GUIDANCE

Check the status of your application periodically in the Trademark Status & Document Retrieval (TSDR) database to avoid missing critical deadlines.
Update your correspondence email address , if needed, to ensure you receive important USPTO notices about your application.
Beware of misleading notices sent by private companies about your application.
Private companies not associated with the USPTO often use public information provided in USPTO trademark applications to mail and email trademark-related offers and notices-most of which require fees. These companies often have names similar to the USPTO. All official USPTO correspondence will only be emailed from the domain "@uspto.gov." For a current list of companies the USPTO has received complaints about, information on how to identify these offers and notices, and what to do if you receive one, see the misleading notices webpage.
