Analysis

Tu Tu V. Ho works in Tech Center 2800 and Art Unit 2811, where she has handled 1365 resolved cases. Her allowance rate is 93.6%, which is exceptionally high and indicates a very favorable outlook for applicants. This is coupled with a median days to allowance of 631, suggesting a very fast and efficient path to grant. These figures, derived from a large sample of 1365 resolved cases, reflect a highly streamlined examination style.

The interview lift pct of 5.2% is low, which is expected given the high baseline allowance rate of 93.6%. This suggests that most applications are successful through written communication alone, and interviews are rarely necessary to secure a grant. Given the 631 median days to allowance, practitioners can expect a very efficient prosecution process. The robust data from 1365 resolved cases makes these metrics a highly reliable guide for anyone working with this examiner.
