Post Registration forms

Post Registration forms.
On March 3, 2007, the USPTO enhanced the functionality of all Post Registration forms, to display the heading of “U.S. Class” for registrations issued on the basis of applications filed on or before August 31, 1973 (currently, the forms improperly use the heading of “International Class,” whereas what is actually being displayed is the U.S. Class number). NOTE: Although intended to be part of the most recent release, the following enhancement has been temporarily postponed: At a later time, the filing of these forms will automatically change both the "Attorney of Record" and "Correspondence Address" data fields in the USPTO's TARR database. I.e., once the enhancement is deployed, it will no longer be necessary to file a separate “Appointment of Attorney” form or “Change of Correspondence Address” form to update those specific fields.
