Time for Reciting Selichot

Question

Hello, I am traveling to the United States during the days of Selichot. What is preferable: Selichot with a minyan before midnight or individually after midnight?

Answer

Shalom Rav,

The time for reciting Selichot is after midnight. Therefore, you should recite individually after midnight.
