[Patentpractice] Office Action Predictions

[Karen Oster]

My assistant spoke to the Applications Assistance Unit this morning.  Apparently, office action prediction letters are no longer available and the First Office Action Estimator tool is disabled permanently.  (Not that either of these were particularly reliable.)  Also, the estimates by Technology Centers in the Official Gazette (https://www.uspto.gov/learning-and-resources/official-gazette/official-gazette-notices-2024) appear to be obsolete.

If you want any idea about when you can expect an Office Action, you can call the Case Resolution team at 571-272-1720 and supposedly they can give you a timeline.  My assistant tried calling and got voicemail.

Does anyone have any other ideas of where to get this information?  Has anyone had any success with the Case Resolution team?
