HHS Section 504 and Section 508

Did HHS also extend its Section 504 deadlines?

Yes. HHS issued its own May 2026 interim final rule. The WCAG 2.1 AA compliance dates are May 11, 2027 for recipients with 15 or more employees and May 10, 2028 for recipients with fewer than 15. The underlying accessibility obligations remain in effect. See 45 CFR 84.84.
