Frequently asked questions
What is the JFK 2017–2018 release?
The 2017–2018 release, beginning October 26, 2017, was the statutory disclosure ordered by the 1992 Assassination Records Act. Several hundred records remained partially withheld at the time and were the subject of subsequent disclosure tranches through 2025.
Why did the National Archives merge 2017 and 2018?
archives.gov consolidated the October 2017, April 2018, and summer 2018 releases onto a single landing page (`/research/jfk/release-2017-2018`). BlackVaultDocs keeps the legacy `jfk-release-2017` slug for URL stability.
Why did it take until 2017?
Under the President John F. Kennedy Assassination Records Collection Act of 1992, all records related to the assassination were required to be publicly disclosed by October 26, 2017. Subsequent Presidential orders extended certain redactions, which is why releases continued through 2025.
