Change of Address
As a registered Attorney and Agent, you are required to notify the Director of any changes of address separately from any notice of address change filed in individual patent applications. 37 CFR §11.11(a).
To change your home or business address you must notify OED in writing. There are two ways to do this. You may do this instantly on-line at https://oedci.uspto.gov/OEDCI/SignIn.jsp
Forget Your User ID or Don't Have a User ID:
Registered practitioners may request a User ID and password for the on-line address change feature by sending a request over the practitioner's signature to the Office of Enrollment and Discipline at:
