The post lists the SCCM support end dates and life cycle information for all the released current branch versions.
The support end dates are significant when determining whether Microsoft supports a given version of SCCM. If your Configuration Manager version is no longer supported, you must upgrade to the most recent version of the current branch to receive updates and fixes.
SCCM Servicing Support Timeline
The below screenshot illustrates the SCCM servicing support timeline, listing the servicing phases for each current branch version.
For instance, the SCCM 2207 version will receive security and critical updates for 4 months after its release. And for the next 14 months, it will receive only security updates.

What happens when the SCCM version expires?
When a SCCM current branch version reaches its EOL, it won’t receive any security updates or technical support for the version of the product.
For example, support for Microsoft Configuration Manager (SCCM) version 2309 expires on April 9, 2025. If you are still running version 2309, you should upgrade to the most recent version.

Servicing Phases
There are two distinct servicing phases that depend on the availability of the latest current branch version:
- Security and Critical Updates servicing phase (Mainstream Support): With the latest current branch versions of Configuration Manager, you’ll receive both Security and Critical Updates. Typically, every current branch version of Configuration Manager will receive 4 months of security and critical updates.
- Security Updates (Only) servicing phase (Extended Support): After the release of a new SCCM current branch version, Microsoft only supports security updates to older versions for the remainder of that version’s support lifecycle.
Note: The terms “SCCM mainstream support” and “SCCM extended support” are not used by Microsoft any more. They have now been replaced by the servicing phases for Security and Critical updates and Security updates only for current branch versions.
