Findmypast and FamilySearch have also updated their 1940 census indexes but they now seem to be showing some states as available to search when they are not indexed, which is a bit confusing, so I won't list the ones they may or may not have added!

FamilySearch are showing a total of 22,693,907 indexed records and FMP say 53,111,895, whereas ancestry say 134,473,456 so it looks as though FamilySearch and FMP have a way to go yet.

Findmypast have corrected the list of states available to search now so that it doesn't include the non-indexed ones. So we can see that Arkansas, District of Columbia, Missouri, Pennsylvania and West Virginia are now indexed on Findmypast.

List of states indexed so far on FMP: Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, California,Colorado, Delaware, District of Columbia, Florida, Hawaii, Idaho, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana, Maine, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Utah, Vermont, Virginia, Washington, West Virginia, Wyoming. I'm not sure why the number of records keeps going up when there don't seem to be any more states included yet.

Guam, New Jersey, Panama Canal Zone, and US Virgin Islands now indexed on Findmypast. So I think that means it is more or less complete now, but their map hasn't been brought up to date yet.
