The 1950 census will be released at 12:01 am on April 1, 2022.  It will not be indexed.  You can search the census if you know your enumeration district. Ancestry has a 1950 census district finder on their opening page. You will need to input an address to find the enumeration district. Once you have done this, you can also choose to be notified by email when Ancestry completes an index for a state that you are interested in.
