DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE
Patent and Trademark Office
Submission for OMB Review;
Comment Request
The United States Patent and
Trademark Office (USPTO) will submit
to the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) for clearance the following
proposal for collection of information
under the provisions of the Paperwork
Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35).
Agency: United States Patent and
Trademark Office (USPTO), Department
of Commerce.
Title: United States Patent Applicant
Survey.
Form Number(s): None. The surveys
contained in this information collection
do not have USPTO form numbers
assigned to them. When the surveys are
approved, they will carry the OMB
Control Number and the date on which
OMB’s approval of the information
collection expires.
Agency Approval Number: 0651–
0052.
Type of Request: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Burden: 140 hours annually.
Number of Respondents: 400
responses per year with an estimated
267 responses filed electronically.
Average Hours Per Response: The
USPTO estimates that it will take the
public 30 minutes (0.50 hours) to
complete the surveys, with the
exception of the surveys for the
independent inventors, which are
estimated to take 15 minutes (0.25
hours) to complete. This includes the
time to gather the necessary
information, respond to the surveys, and
submit them to the USPTO. The USPTO
believes that it will take the same
amount of time to respond to the
surveys, whether they are completed
online or mailed to the USPTO.
Needs and Uses: The USPTO
developed the United States Patent
Applicant Survey as part of a continuing
effort to better predict the future growth
of patent application filings by
understanding applicant intentions. The
main purpose of this survey is to
PO 00000
Frm 00027
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
determine the number of application
filings that the USPTO can expect to
receive over the next three years from
patent-generating entities, ranging from
large domestic corporations to
independent inventors. The USPTO also
uses this survey in response to the
Senate Appropriations Report 106–404
(September 8, 2000), which directed the
USPTO to ‘‘develop a workload forecast
with advice from a representative
sample of industry and the inventor
community.’’ There are two versions of
the survey: one for large domestic
corporations and small and mediumsized businesses and one for
universities, non-profit research
organizations, and independent
inventors. The large domestic
corporations, small and medium-sized
businesses, universities, non-profit
research organizations, and independent
inventors responding to these surveys
will provide the USPTO with the
number of application filings that they
plan to submit, in addition to providing
general feedback concerning industry
trends and the survey itself. The USPTO
will use this feedback to anticipate
demand and estimate future revenue
flow more reliably; to identify input and
output triggers and allocate resources to
meet and understand customer needs;
and to reassess output and capacity
goals and re-align organization quality
control measures with applicant
demand by division.
Affected Public: Businesses or other
for-profits and not-for-profit
institutions.
Frequency: On occasion.
Respondent’s Obligation: Voluntary.
OMB Desk Officer: David Rostker,
(202) 395–3897.

collection proposal can be obtained by
any of the following:
E-mail: Susan.Fawcett@uspto.gov.
