When/How to File. 1  File the letter of protest as soon as possible after the subject application is filed and preferably before publication. Pre-publication letters of protest are accepted if the evidence is relevant and supports a reasonable ground for refusal. After publication, a letter of protest is only accepted if the evidence supports a clear error on the part of the USPTO in approving the mark for publication.
Children in College. The IRS extends the age limit for qualifying children for those in college. If your son is 23 and a full-time college student at the end of the calendar year, you can claim him on your income tax if he meets the other requirements for a qualified child. Temporary absences due to education and vacation don't count as time living away from you.
Filing Requirements. Your child is limited as to how he can file his own tax return if you can claim him as a dependent. If he meets all the IRS criteria as a qualifying child, he's your dependent, even if you don't claim him. Therefore, he can't claim a standard exemption for himself on his own tax return.our child is limited as to how he can file his own tax return if you can claim him as a dependent.
