Deficiencies or inaccuracies due to the failure to meet the requirements of [§ 1.63(b)](/cfr/37/1.63.md?p=b) in an oath or declaration may be corrected with an application data sheet in accordance with [§ 1.76](/cfr/37/1.76.md), except that any correction of inventorship must be pursuant to [§ 1.48](/cfr/37/1.48.md).
- (b) A supplemental inventor's oath or declaration under this section must be executed by the person whose inventor's oath or declaration is being withdrawn, replaced, or otherwise corrected.
- (c) The Office will not require a person who has executed an oath or declaration in compliance with [35 U.S.C. 115](/usc/35/115.md) and § [1.63](/cfr/37/1.63.md) or [1.162](/cfr/37/1.162.md) for an application to provide an additional inventor's oath or declaration for the application.
- (d) No new matter may be introduced into a nonprovisional application after its filing date even if an inventor's oath or declaration is filed to correct deficiencies or inaccuracies present in the earlier-filed inventor's oath or declaration.
