A couple weeks ago when nothing was working, using Patent Center, I tried<br>
to file a PCT application with an ePCT zip file. Nothing was working (I<br>
think that was the day Patent Center just crashed, seconds after I<br>
submitted this very application), so i didn't pay the fees.<br>
<br>
The application papers are in the Patent Center file wrapper, but the<br>
"Application Information" page is not populated.<br>
<br>
I need to pay the fees. I check all the boxes and -- the fee for<br>
"International Filing Fee (first 30 sheets) with ePCT zip file" isn't in<br>
the selectable lsit. The only fee is " INTERNATIONAL FILING FEE (FIRST 30<br>
PAGES - FILED ELECTRONICALLY WITHOUT EPCT OR PCT-EASY .ZIP FILE)" (which<br>
isn't me), and the listed fee is pretty clearly wrong, based on my RO101<br>
from ePCT. I have goofed around a bit to try to get the right fee<br>
calculation, no can do.<br>
<br>
I have about 10 more days before the fees must be paid. Should I just wait<br>
until the application gets to WIPO, and then pay ePCT? Or send a paper<br>
check?<br>
<br>
I have not called EBC. I don't need them to tell me that Patent Center is<br>
misbehaving and that they can't do anything about it.<br>

When we have to pay an odd fee amount that cannot be calculated in Patent Center, we write a letter itemizing the fees, and authorize the deposit account for that exact amount.<br>
<br>
Would this method work to pay PCT filing fees for an application filed in RO/US via Patent Center?<br>

Frustrating as Patent Center can be, the thing I find most frustrating is that something like David?s ?bug? could go away tomorrow with absolutely no explanation. I don?t have a better suggestion than Cathy?s right now, but if you wait couple of days (since
 you have 10) the USPTO may correct this problem on their own.<br>

<br>
A couple weeks ago when nothing was working, using Patent Center, I tried to file a PCT application with an ePCT zip file. Nothing was working (I think that was the day Patent Center just crashed, seconds after I submitted this very application), so i didn't
 pay the fees.<br>
<br>
The application papers are in the Patent Center file wrapper, but the "Application Information" page is not populated.<br>
<br>
I need to pay the fees. I check all the boxes and -- the fee for "International Filing Fee (first 30 sheets) with ePCT zip file" isn't in the selectable lsit. The only fee is " INTERNATIONAL FILING FEE (FIRST 30 PAGES - FILED ELECTRONICALLY WITHOUT EPCT OR
 PCT-EASY .ZIP FILE)" (which isn't me), and the listed fee is pretty clearly wrong, based on my RO101 from ePCT. I have goofed around a bit to try to get the right fee calculation, no can do.<br>
<br>
I have about 10 more days before the fees must be paid. Should I just wait until the application gets to WIPO, and then pay ePCT? Or send a paper check?<br>
<br>
I have not called EBC. I don't need them to tell me that Patent Center is misbehaving and that they can't do anything about it.<br>
