| Q. | Do I have to send copies of correspondence or other proof of the unfair enforcement action taken by the federal agency with the official comment form? |
| A. | Yes. Congressional legislation mandates that all comments received by the Office of the National Ombudsman must be substantiated. |
| Q. | I sent a completed comment form and substantiating documentation to the Office of the National Ombudsman. How long should it take to receive a response from the federal agency? |
| A. | The Office of the National Ombudsman requests all federal agencies to respond to comments within thirty (30) days, however, more complex comments may take as long as 90 days. |
| Q. | I have filed an official comment along with substantiating documentation with the Office of the National Ombudsman. Should I continue to pursue other remedies I consider to be in the best interest of my small business? |
| A. | Yes. In all cases you should pursue all remedies you consider to be in the best interest of your small business. Submission of a comment to the Office of the National Ombudsman is NOT a substitute for legal or other action you may take. |
