[Patentpractice] RELATED/FOLLOW-ON QUESTION --> January 19, 2025 USPTO Fees question [Missing parts notice for new application]

[William Ahmed]

 The original question -->Does the previous fee for an Issue Fee remain fixed ($1200) for a large entity after January 19, 2025 for an issue fee due January 21, 2025?  If not, does the Applicant pay the new fee - $1290? [it seems like the USPTO will allow applicant to pay the EARLIER fee after Jan 19, 2025 -- $1200]

My follow-on question [background]-> last month, I filed a new US application without paying any filing fees.Earlier today, the USPTO mailed a 'notice to file missing parts' asking for filing fees, exam fees and search fees for one of our cases.A specific dollar appeared on the 'notice to file missing parts' (i.e. the current USPTO fees) and a March 14, 2025 deadline also appeared on the 'notice to file missing parts'
 My follow-on [The Actual Question] -- can I pay in February 2025 according to the dollar amounts listed on today's "notice to file missing parts" ??
Thank you,Bill

It's why I really appreciate this list. It's like RI for patent practitioners (RI = REAL intelligence)!

Yes.
   
  
   
Under the changes to 35 U.S.C. 151 in the Patent Law Treaties Implementation Act (PLTIA) (Public Law 112-211), the sum specified in the Notice of Allowance will constitute the issue fee and any required publication fee, and the Office will proceed to issue a patent when the applicant pays the sum specified in the Notice of Allowance, regardless of the issue fee and/or publication fee in effect on the date the sum specified in the Notice of Allowance is paid.
