Can I submit multiple assignment documents with a single cover sheet?

No, you cannot submit multiple assignment documents with a single cover sheet. MPEP 302.07 clearly states: “A patent cover sheet must identify only one patent, and a separate patent cover sheet must be submitted for each patent as to which the assignment document is to be recorded.”

This requirement ensures that each assignment is properly documented and linked to the correct patent or application. If you have multiple assignments to record, you must prepare and submit a separate cover sheet for each one.
