Mikveh Motzei Shabbat?

I heard that some people have the minhag not to toivel motzei shabbos or motzei yomtov....even if it's the right time.......do you know anything about this?

Dear questioner,

Thank you for your question.

The prevailing custom is to permit immersion on Motzaei Shabbat or Yom Tov in all cases.

This internet service does not preclude, override or replace the psak of any rabbinical authority. It is the responsibility of the questioner to inform us of any previous consultation or ruling. As even slight variation in circumstances may have Halachic consequences, views expressed concerning one case may not be applied to other, seemingly similar cases.
