human: If the applicant filed an after-final amendment that is non-compliant within the statutory time period with the appropriate extension of time fee, can the examiner allow the application after the six-month statutory period by correcting the non-compliance
assistant: Only when the non-compliance is minor in the after-final amendment that would otherwise place the application in condition for allowance, the examiner may provide an examiner's amendment without an authorization from the applicant to correct the non-compliance if such examiner's amendment is limited to correcting the format errors or any typographical errors and does not make any substantive changes to the claims and/or specification. For example, if some of the status identifiers are improper or missing, the examiner may provide in the examiner's amendment a complete claim listing with the proper status identifiers or instructions to correct (e.g., for claim 2, change the status identifier "twice amended" to "previously presented").
