that it was fixed (and requested that I call her back if I did not see that it was fixed within a few days). A day or two later the message was gone and the application proceeded to registration.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">As some may recall, I had SOUs accepted for ITU apps back in February, only to see “ON HOLD - ELECTRONIC RECORD REVIEW REQUIRED” pop up in the prosecution history, and then—crickets. After two months of nothing
happening, I called the Trademark Assistance Center, and they told me I needed to contact the examiner. So, I called and emailed last week. Never got a response from the examiner, but this morning, I got a SECOND “Notice of Acceptance of Statement of Use”
for each of the applications. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">I still don’t know what “ON HOLD - ELECTRONIC RECORD REVIEW REQUIRED” means, or why these applications disappeared into a black hole for almost two months, or why it was necessary to email a second notice
of acceptance of the statement of use for each. I can only hope the process won’t repeat itself.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">If there are any lurkers from the PTO around, I would really like to understand why these two applications were approved for registration and then held up like this. I had never seen this message in the Prosecution
History dropdown before and no one has been able to explain what it means.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
