Perhaps 4 out of 5 choices the same - separate verification statement

31. In accordance with the USPTO rules and the procedures set forth in the MPEP,

which of the following documents, if any, must also contain a separate verification statement?

(A) Small entity statements.

(B) A petition to make an application special.

(C) A claim for foreign priority.

(D) An English translation of a non-English language document.

(E) None of the above.

31. ANSWER: (E) is the most correct answer. MPEP § 410 makes clear that the certification requirement

set forth in 37 CFR § 10.18(b) “has permitted the PTO to eliminate the separate verification requirement

previously contained in 37 CFR …1.27 [small entity statements], …1.52 [English translations of non-English

documents], …1.55 [claim for foreign priority], [and] …1.102 [petition to make an application special].”
