Notice
regarding Section 508 of the Workforce Investment Act of 1998:
Section 508 of the Workforce Investment Act of 1998 requires that all
U.S. Federal Agencies make their web sites fully accessible to
individuals with disabilities. See 29 U.S.C. §794d. While the
Trademark Electronic Application System (TEAS) forms do comply with
Section 508, the PDF preview of the TEAS forms currently do not meet
all standards for web accessibility. If you cannot access a TEAS form
preview or have any questions about this notice, please contact the
Trademark Assistance Center (TAC) at 1-800-786-9199 (select
option#1), Monday-Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 8 p.m., ET.

U.S.C. §§ 1058 & 1059)
TEAS -
Version 7.6
|
|
You
must file a Section 8 affidavit/declaration, specimen, and
fee on date that falls on or between the ninth (9th) and
tenth (10th) anniversaries of the registration, and each
successive ten-year period thereafter (or, for an extra fee
of $100.00 per class, you may file within the six-month
grace period). Also, you must file a renewal application
within the same period (or, for an extra fee of $100.00 per
class, you may file within the six-month grace period
following the registration expiration date). FAILURE TO
FILE THIS DOCUMENT WILL RESULT IN CANCELLATION/EXPIRATION
OF THE REGISTRATION. Note:
Because the time for filing a ten-year Section 8
affidavit/declaration coincides with the time for filing a
Section 9 renewal application, you may use this combined §§
8 & 9 form.
