6 and 9 year con/div filing reminders
-
Because of the new USPTO fees for filing con/div applications more than 6/9 years after the priority date, it would be nice to have those times docketed. Could AppColl automatically for every US application add these dates and a task at 5.5 years and 8.5 years post the priority date to check for con/div filings.

@ChristianS9906 agree that is a good alternative

@LawrenceL6000 If you have the EBD field available, I think users can define whatever task/timing they want based on that field to flag when you might want to consider filing a CON/DIV to avoid the fees. The EBD is the only thing that we, as users, cannot handle on our own--needs a backend calculation.

@ChristianS9906 The EBD calculation post is good but I believe it doesn't mention automatically adding tasks at the appropriate times to remind us to check whether we should file continuing applications before allowance to avoid the fee increases. So thumbs up for BenjaminK4148's suggestion.
