[Patentcenter] Login Looping

[Krista Jacobsen]

I'm also seeing this issue with Patent Center showing me as not logged in
after I've clicked the Patent Center link from the main myUSPTO page.

I'm also seeing some VERY annoying behavior around fee payments. For
several weeks now, once I hit submit and click the button to pay fees,
instead of taking me to the fee payment portion, I've been kicked out to
the main Patent Center page. I used to be able to use the browser's back
button to get back to the page with the "pay fees" button, and then the
button would take me where it was supposed to, but now when I try that, I
get the Forbidden message.

When that happens, is there any easy way to pay fees owed without having to
go through "existing submissions" in Patent Center and select all of the
fees again? I feel like there should be some way to go in and pay fees that
I already set up and intended to pay, but I couldn't figure out how to do
that.

I'm using the USPTO's favorite browser, the "nobody uses it" browser,
Firefox.

Best regards,
Krista
