Under this authority, pharmaceutical companies pay fees for certain new human drug applications, biologics applications, and supplements submitted to the agency for review. Because the submission of user fees concurrently with applications and supplements is required, review of an application by FDA cannot begin until the fee has been submitted. Form FDA 3397, the user fee cover sheet, is designed to provide the minimum necessary information to determine whether a fee is required for review of an application, to determine the amount of the fee required, and to help FDA track payments. The form provides a cross-reference of the fee submitted for an application with the actual application by using a unique number tracking system to assign the user fee payment identification number. The information collected is used by FDA’s Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER) and Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (CBER) to initiate the administrative screening of new drug applications, biologics license applications, and supplemental applications. FDA has created an on-line user fee cover sheet which will assist FDA and pharmaceutical companies by improving service and reducing the time for applicants and their affiliates to file and comply with PDUFA through more automated channels. The new system will allow customers to obtain a user fee payment identification number, create and complete a user fee cover sheet online, and submit it electronically to FDA’s Office of Financial Management. It will decrease the administrative burden on FDA, improve service by automating the cover sheet application process, and allow applicants to securely view their payments received by FDA on-line. This new system, which replaces the previous process, will be available on February 15, 2005.
