# Preferably, the congregation should carefully choose a proper Shliach Tzibbur who is married, thirty years old, and the more he is learned and practices good deeds the better. <Ref> Rama 581:1 </ref> However, someone who is learned and Yireh Shamayim is preferred over someone who lacks these qualities but fits the requirements of being married and thirty years old. <Ref> Mishna Brurah 581:13 </ref>

# If one wear Tzitzit earlier than Olot HaShachar (for example, for Selichot) and then afdter Olot HaShachar (and preferably after MeSheyakir) puts on a Talit,

One should only make one Bracha on Tzitzit and Talit even if one puts on Tzitzit a long time before the Talit. <Ref> Mishna Brurah 8:24 writes that for sure one should make the Bracha of Talit and cover the Tzitzit rather than make a Bracha on Tzitzit and then on Talit. Even if there will be a long time between putting on the Tzitzit and wearing the Talit, one should still say only one Bracha on the Talit because there are many concerns about making the Bracha on the Tzitzit (it may not be split on the sides a majority, it may not fit the proper Shuir, or one may have slept in the Tzitzit). [this is also brought in Yalkut Yosef (Tzitzit pg 294, Kitzur S”A 16:2).] Siach Halacha 8:47 writes that if one does put on Tzitzit a long time before Talit and one covers all the concerns (the Tzitzit is split on the sides, it is the proper size, and one didn’t sleep in them) then one should make the Bracha on Tzitzit and then later on the Talit. (This is only fathomable if one puts on the Tzitzit and makes the Bracha after Olot HaShachar as is clear in 18:3 and still there will be a break between then and when one puts on a Talit.) However, the Shalmei Moed (pg 22) brings Rav Shlomo Zalman Aurerbach who argues that the Mishna Brurah meant that no matter whether it’s a long time or not, one does not make a two Brachot. </ref>

# A bachur who doesn’t wear a Talit should be careful to make the Bracha on Tzitzit right after Olot after feeling the Tzitzit. <Ref> Minchat Shlomo 4:1:3 writes that regarding Selichot a bachur who doesn’t wear a Talit should be careful to make the Bracha on Tzitzit right after Olot after feeling the Tzitzit. This is based on the Rama 18:3 who writes that if one put on a Talit Katan before Olot HaShachar, then, at Olot one should feel the strings of the Tzitzit and make a Bracha. </ref>

However, if someone who slept in the Tzitzit all night, Mishna Brurah 8:42 writes that one shouldn’t make a Bracha on it in the morning (and he shouldn’t remove the Tzitzit so as to make a hefsek in order to require a Bracha).
