Title: How long does it take to establish DMCA Agent?
Post by: The-Gobbler on October 13, 2014, 06:07:15 PM

Hi guys, so I filled out this form: http://www.copyright.gov/onlinesp/agent.pdf  And paid the $115 to become a DMCA agent for my site. 

This was over 6 weeks ago and I've received no communication and the check I sent appears to not have been cashed yet (still stunned these people use checks, but that's another story).

Anyway.... is this normal?  Am I supposed to receive some kind of confirmation?

I think Buddhapi might know the answer to this. He might chime in here.

It could take months, it the US Government! I probably would have sent it registered mail receipt, to confirm they even got it..

this is an old post and the prices have changed, but everything else is still the same I believe.

Assuming you have all the required information and have submitted the form correctly, it will get done in due time..
