It usually takes a little while to get a patent application written, but it can take years to actually get a patent after filing the application.

What happens if I want to patent a process to make patenting faster?

My job becomes a lot easier. You only have to invent a process for making government employees work efficiently AND quickly. You'd be rich!

Seriously, I can answer any questions you might have about the process, about "provisional" and "non-provisional" and "PCT" patent applications, etc.

The USPTO has an entire department of people who hunt down and kill inventors like you. They refuse to make the process go faster. They have created a process for "expediting" an application. Problem is, it takes longer to get your application to expedite approved than it would to get your patent.
