The Application System opened on schedule around midnight UTC on Thursday, January 12th, 2012.<ref>[http://domainincite.com/icann-opens-new-gtld-program/ ICANN Opens New gTLD Program, DomainIncite.com]</ref> On January 19, 2012, just a week after [[ICANN]] opened the application window for new gTLDs, it reported that 25 companies had created accounts and registered for new gTLDs on the TAS system. This, however, does not indicate how many applications were filed, given that each TAS account can handle up to 50 separate applications. One company, [[Minds + Machines]], disclosed that they had already registered for 20 extensions on behalf of their clients.<ref>[http://domainincite.com/25-companies-register-for-new-gtlds/ 25 companies Register for New gTLDs, DomainIncite.com]</ref>
