The deadline for migration from an old PKI certificate to a USPTO.gov account is July 16. Ensure that you migrated the proper PKI to the correct USPTO.gov account, or reverse incorrectly migrated accounts by the deadline. Practitioners and independent inventors need a verified USPTO.gov account to access EFS-Web for registered eFilers and Private PAIR. Support staff working on behalf of a practitioner need to be sponsored to obtain access.
New customers, or customers who do not migrate by July 16, can obtain a verified USPTO.gov account using the new verification process. For more information on migrations and sponsorship, please visit the authentication change webpage for guidance.
Check the USPTO systems status and availability page for more information and updates.
If you have questions or need to reverse an incorrectly migrated account, contact the
Patent Electronic Business Center (EBC) at ebc@uspto.gov or (866) 217-9197.
