until

The USPTO will perform routine maintenance on P-TACTS systems for two consecutive nights:

  • The first night of maintenance will be from 12:01-5:30 a.m. ET on Friday, February 14.
  • The final night of maintenance will be from 12:01-5:30 a.m. ET on Saturday, February 15. 

P-TACTS will be unavailable during the maintenance period. 

Users should save all work and log off their workstation before the maintenance period begins.

Parties must either pay fees for petitions outside of this scheduled maintenance time or pay early. Those with deadlines for petition filing or other associated documents to a pending AIA case, must use an alternate filing method.
