For a personal patent, in order to reduce patent fees, is it okay if the applicant is my father and the inventor is myself? Is there anything wrong or inconvenient?

1. Yes, the applicant and the inventor are not necessarily the same or even related;

2. Once the patent is authorized, the applicant is the patentee and owns the patent For the right to use, the applicant can be either an organization or a natural person; the inventor indicates who invented the patent, which only means that the inventor participated in the technical point of the patent, and the inventor can only be a natural person;

3. Based on the above two points, whether the applicant is an organization or an individual or both an organization and an individual, and whether there is one inventor or multiple inventors, all have their own pros and cons. It depends on what you mainly use the patent for.
