Analysis

Thai T. Dinh has managed 677 resolved cases in Art Unit 2834 within Tech Center 3600. The examiner's allowance rate is 86.1%, and the median days to allowance is 854. The interview lift of 0.2% is negligible, suggesting that interviews have almost no impact on the final outcome of a case. This indicates that the examiner's decisions are primarily driven by the written record.

Practitioners in Tech Center 3600 should focus on written submissions, as the examiner's baseline allowance rate is already very high at 86.1%. The 854-day median to allowance provides a clear expectation for the duration of the process. Given the 0.2% interview lift, scheduling an interview may not be the most efficient use of resources. With 677 resolved cases, the data strongly supports a strategy centered on the 86.1% baseline success rate. Applicants can expect a predictable 854-day path to allowance by providing clear and persuasive written arguments in Art Unit 2834.
