When will Planner be available for Government O365 subscriptions?
- It's been a long time coming, but Planner is now officially launched in GCC and GCCHigh: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/Planner-Blog/Microsoft-Planner-is-now-available-in-Microsoft-s-cloud/ba-p/309947
Add me to the list of those who need this feature NOW. My customers are already shopping/procuring 3rd party products to fill this void. It's frustrating that we are paying for all of these services that we are not receiving. I was holding them off until the end of 2017, but if I tell them another 6 months, they won't believe it -- and honestly, neither do I.
The Office 365 roadmap was updated to specify Q2 of CY2018. For whatever that is worth.. it's more specific than it was previously :) So many we can hope by the end of June?
Roadmap now says Q3 2018. Updated on March 19th, 2018.

"Planner will be available in Office 365 US Government Community (GCC) when it meets the compliance commitments of the offering."
It's been pushed back for 2 years now, so who knows when it'll actually happen. It is likely not Microsoft's fault.
Looks like they changed the date once more, and this time they actually have a month/year:

Um, maybe it is out of compliance, maybe it actually will happen. Usually when they give a month, they are within 60 days, so this is good.
