The Supreme Court’s February 20, 2026 ruling in Learning Resources v. Trump held that IEEPA tariffs were unlawful, opening $166 billion in refunds across 53 million entry summaries and 330,000 importers of record. Miami and Southeast & Latin America Gateway importers are among those eligible. CBP’s CAPE system is actively processing refunds through Phase 1 and Phase 2. Phase 3, covering finally liquidated entries, was ordered July 17, 2026, but the general portal function remains undeployed, with no new date given as CBP continues building additional system validations.
South Florida's retail sector — including major national chains with Southeast distribution — paid IEEPA duties on goods from China, Vietnam, and Cambodia with significant per-entry refund potential.
Miami's apparel import sector, including Latin America-focused fashion brands, paid IEEPA duties on goods from China and Asian origins.
Florida technology importers — including defense contractors and consumer electronics distributors — paid IEEPA duties on Taiwan and China-origin goods.
Florida's large healthcare sector imports medical devices, pharmaceutical ingredients, and supplies from IEEPA-affected origins with significant duty exposure.
CBP is processing IEEPA refunds in three phases. Your eligibility depends on your entry liquidation status and whether a Type 09 reconciliation entry has been filed.
Entries not yet liquidated, or liquidated within 80 days of your CAPE Declaration filing date. Open since April 20, 2026. No Type 09 restriction.
Entry Types 01, 02, 06 flagged for reconciliation with no Type 09 filed. Open since June 29, 2026. File CAPE Declaration before Type 09 — sequence matters.
Entries liquidated more than 80 days ago. The July 17, 2026 order is case-linked and limited to importers who already filed individual CIT lawsuits — roughly ~3,700 companies. CBP's most recent report confirms the general portal function is still not live, with no new date given.

With CAPE Phase 3 ordered but its general portal function still not deployed and Section 122 expiring July 24, the tariff landscape is shifting rapidly. Importers who act now capture more of the statutory interest accruing on their refund. The earlier you file, the higher your queue position and the more interest you collect.
TariffIQ™ identifies your exact CAPE phase position, your refund estimate, and your next step. Free assessment, no obligation, no recovery no fee.
