This examiner grants 60% of resolved cases
Yuqing Xiao works in Art Unit 2182 of Tech Center 6200. He has 267 resolved cases and an allowance rate of 60.3%. The median days to allowance is 1334, which reflects a longer-than-average prosecution period. These metrics suggest that while success is achievable, the process requires a significant time investment. Practitioners should set expectations for a timeline of nearly four years to reach an allowance.
The interview lift is 28.0%. This significant lift suggests that interviews are a key factor in successful prosecution and can substantially improve the odds of a grant. Given the 60.3% allowance rate and 1334-day timeline, engaging the examiner directly is a highly recommended tactic. The 267 resolved cases show that the examiner has a consistent track record. The 28.0% lift indicates that the examiner is very responsive to oral arguments. Overall, the data points to a prosecution environment where direct communication is one of the most effective ways to overcome rejections and advance the case.
