Bedikot when postponing tevilah from Yom Kippur

September 29, 2014

Question

Hello. I am supposed to go to the mikve on the night of Yom Kippur, so I will have to postpone to Motzei Yom Kippur. Do I need to do bedikot on the 8th day – Yom Kippur itself – as well? Thank you so much.

Answer

Once you complete the 7th clean day, you may change into colored underwear and need not perform any further bedikot until you immerse.

Please feel free to get back to us with any further questions.
