Important Information Regarding the New Duration of Status Rule

On September 14, 2026, a U.S. District Court Judge in Massachusetts issued a nationwide order pausing the D/S rule from going into effect on September 15, 2026. This is not a final ruling on the lawsuit itself, rather, the court found that the plaintiffs are likely to succeed on the merits of their case and has paused the D/S rule from taking effect while the underlying lawsuit continues.
