关于应考资格，USPTO有以下说明
https://www.uspto.gov/sites/default/files/documents/OED_GRB.pdf
（第7-8页）
An alien residing in the United States may apply to take the registration
examination. To be admitted to the examination, an applicant must establish
that recognition is consistent with the capacity of employment authorized by
the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). The evidence
must include a copy of both sides of any work or training authorization and
copies of all documents submitted to and received from the USCIS regarding
admission to the United States and a copy of any documentation submitted to
the U.S. Department of Labor. A qualifying non-immigrant alien within the
scope of 8 CFR § 274a.12(b) or (c) is not registered upon passing the
examination. Such an applicant will be given limited recognition under 37 CFR
§ 11.9(b) if recognition is consistent with the capacity of employment or
training authorized by the USCIS. Documentation establishing an applicant’s
qualification to receive limited recognition must be submitted with the
applicant's application.
Qualifying documentation would show that the USCIS has authorized the
applicant to be employed or trained in the capacity of representing patent
applicants before the USPTO by preparing and prosecuting their patent
applications. Any USCIS approval pending at that time will result in the
applicant's application being denied admission to the examination.
*alien：非公民、非绿卡的外国人，就算是alien
*capacity:申请人在美国的合法身分（F1/OPT, H1b等等）是需要劳工局和移民署的批准
工作内容必须“代表专利申请人而对USPTO提出申请案/进行答辩等。
*Limited recognition:有资格应考、且通过之后，如果签证依然有效，工作内容也不变
USPTO就会发给一个 L开头的号码，专门给Alien通过考试者。等拿到绿卡/公民
之后，把身分改变的文件送到USPTO才会改发一个正式专利代理人号码。
*资格不符：资格不符的人，连应考资格都没有。
