49. ANSWER: Choice (E) is the correct answer. MPEP § 502.01, and 37 C.F.R. § 1.6(d)(3).
MPEP § 502.01 reads, “The date of receipt accorded to any correspondence permitted to be sent
by facsimile transmission, including a continued prosecution application (CPA) filed under 37
C.F.R. § 1.53(d), is the date the complete transmission is received by an Office facsimile
unit…An applicant filing a CPA by facsimile transmission must include an authorization to
charge the basic filing fee to a deposit account or to a credit card.” Choice (A) is incorrect
because 37 C.F.R. § 1.6(d) states, “Facsimile transmissions are not permitted and, if submitted,
will not be accorded a date of receipt in the following situations: …(5) A request for
reexamination under §1.510 or § 1.913.” Choice (B) is incorrect because 37 C.F.R. § 1.6(d) also

§ 1.6(d) also states, “Facsimile transmissions are not permitted and, if submitted, will not be
accorded a date of receipt in the following situations: …(3) Correspondence which cannot
receive the benefit of the certificate of mailing or transmission as specified in 1.8(a)(2)(i)(A)…”
37 C.F.R. § 1.8(a)(2)(i)(A) reads, “The filing of a national patent application specification and
drawing or other correspondence for the purpose of obtaining an application filing date…”
Choice (D) is incorrect because 37 C.F.R. § 1.6(d) also states, “Facsimile transmissions are not
permitted and, if submitted, will not be accorded a date of receipt in the following situations:
…(6) Correspondence to be filed in a patent application subject to a secrecy order under §§ 5.1
through 5.5 of this chapter and directly related to the secrecy order content of the application.”

1) Correspondence requiring a person’s signature
2) filing of a national patent application specification and drawing or other correspondence for the purpose of obtaining an application filing date,

Is # 3) in the list above correct?
MPEP 502.01 says:
An applicant filing a CPA for a design application only by facsimile transmission must include an authorization to charge the basic filing fee to a deposit account or to a credit card, or the application will be treated under 37 CFR 1.53(f) as having been filed without the basic filing fee (as fees cannot otherwise be transmitted by facsimile).
There is a special receipt procedure for filing a CPA by fax, whereby the Office will fax back a receipt of the CPA filing if applicant submits the Office receipt form along with the CPA filing.
Hi I’m new here. I am sorry if this this is not the right place for this post but I was wondering If some one
here on mypatentbar.com would be able to assist me to choose the better category. The forums here are absolutely wonderful and
certainly plan on sticking around for as long as I am welcome and learn more from you huys.
It seems B is now correct to because the new MPEP (e8r8) says in 1.6(d)(4) Color drawings submitted under §§ 1.81,
1.83 through 1.85, 1.152, 1.165, 1.173, or 1.437; are not acceptable, so a drawing would be acceptable.
I believe you’re correct. Also see MPEP 502.01 under subheading II. After the list of prohibited mailings, it notes ” Applicants are reminded that the facsimile process may reduce the quality of the drawings, and the Office will generally print the drawings as received.”
got this 2/2
Hi PCTearsofJoy, did the most recent version of the question allow for 2 correct answers? (since both B and E are now correct?)
Miranda, I picked E on the exam only because it stood out instantly and also because I knew for a fact that CPAs can be faxed. Drawings? I’m still not sure, even after looking it up and reading the comments above. But I figured that since there’s no way to pick two answers on the exam, why not just go with the one that I could definitely confirm? So I went w/ CPA. Hope that helps!
Color Drawing cannot be faxed and Drawing can be faxed?
