OZ 2.0 status summary

  • Filed: 14 jurisdictions, 13 states and the U.S. Virgin Islands, have filed 1,658 nominated tracts with Treasury, each confirmed by a state, territory or Treasury source.
  • Certified: none yet. Treasury, the IRS and the CDFI Fund have not published a certified OZ 2.0 list for any state, so every filing above is a nomination pending certification. Treasury's review window ends by November 27, 2026 at the latest (how certification works).
  • Due October 28: New Jersey, Oregon and Pennsylvania have confirmed the single 30-day extension. 37 states and DC have no official count yet.
  • Tract lists: 12 states and the U.S. Virgin Islands have published their nominated tracts. Every listed tract is highlighted on the OZ 2.0 map (pick a state in the filter) and in that state's tract lists.
