How the Date Is Worked Out

1. Enacted Apr. 24, 2024 (Pub. L. 118-50).
2. Text: “Not later than 120 days after the date of enactment of this division.” Apr. 24, 2024 + 120 days = Aug. 22, 2024.
3. Recurs every 1 year, running from the first deadline: Aug. 22, 2024 + k × 1 year.
4. Text ends the recurrence when a condition is met (“until the date described in subsection (d)”); dates continue until public evidence shows it was met.
5. As of Nov. 11, 2026: next deadline Aug. 22, 2027 (284 days away); previous Aug. 22, 2026.
