Question:How do I check on the status of my pending patent application?

Answer:
The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) is pleased to present PAIR - Patent Application Information Retrieval System. PAIR also has a public side to provide the same information to the public once an application has issued as a patent or published as a patent application publication. Once you receive a patent filing receipt containing the application number of your application, you may check on the status of a pending application once you obtain the appropriate tools.

Answer:
FDA’s primary responsibility is to assist the Patent Trademark Office (PTO) in determining a product’s eligibility for patent term restoration and to provide information to PTO regarding a product’s regulatory review period.
