You must file a PTAB AIA Petition using the

PTABE2E system.

Filing the Petition requires entry of all Formal Details

relating to the Petition.

You do not get a Petition filing date until the PTO

receives both the Petition and Petition Fee.

Paying the Petition Fee requires a USPTO FM

Account, linked to either a USPTO Deposit

Account or a Bank Account having sufficient funds.

Linking a Bank Account to an FM Account takes (at

least) 8 days.
