Question: Can I file online?

Answer: Not at the moment. Online registration is among the goals of the Copyright Office’s reengineering program and is expected to be available for use by the public sometime in the future.

Question: What works are protected?

Answer: "Copyright protects ""original works of authorship"" that are fixed in a tangible form of expression. The fixation need not be directly perceptible so long as it may be communicated with the aid of a machine or device. Copyrightable works include the following categories: literary works; musical works, including any accompanying words dramatic works, including any accompanying music pantomimes and choreographic works pictorial, graphic, and sculptural works motion pictures and other audiovisual works sound recordings architectural works "

Question: How long does the registration process take?

Answer: The time the Copyright Office requires to process an application varies, depending on the amount of material the Office is receiving. If your submission is in order, you may generally expect to receive a certificate of registration within approximately 4 months of submission.
