USPTO Verification
October 28, 2022

In order to file a trademark application, an ID.me verification is required. The process initially did not work well but that may have just been a software error. It was cleared up immediately and the result was seamless, using a smartphone and a text link. This is the recommended method as it connects the phone number with the images. Please have patience and contact the IT office if there are any issues, as it is cleared up with timely response and professional assistance.
