There's no such thing as a provisional patent. A provisional application can be filed up to a year before your product or process is ready for a regular patent application, in order to give you an earlier filing date and allow the use of the phrase "patent pending." Provisional applications have no examination, and are therefore considerably easier and cheaper to file, giving you a year to prepare the "real thing."When a provisional application is submitted electronically, the materials are automatically entered into the system, and you will fairly quickly receive a receipt acknowledging your submission date.
