What the Federal Reserve lists show for Memorial Day

The Federal Reserve Financial Services schedule lists Memorial Day on May 25 in 2026 and May 31 in 2027, and the Board's K.8 list shows the same dates.

For the 2026 holiday, the FedACH table shows processing ends May 23, 2026, 3 a.m. ET and resumes May 25, 2026, 5:30 p.m. ET*. That is the 2026 pattern for this holiday, not a 2027 schedule: the FedACH table we read listed 2026 only.

The Federal Reserve's footnote to the "Processing Resumes" column is quoted below.
