==The mitzvah of accepting Yom Kippur early==
# It is a mitzvah to accept Yom Kippur early in order to add from the week onto Yom Kippur. <ref> Gemara Rosh Hashana 9a learns from Vayikra 23:32 that there is an obligation to add from the weekday onto Yom Kippur called Tosefet Shabbat.  (This also appears in Yoma 81b). S"A 263:2 brings this as halacha. </ref>
# Some say that it's sufficient to add any amount of time before sunset, while others hold that one should add 20 or 30 minutes before sunset. (See footnote for background) <ref>
* S"A 271:2 and 608:1 rules that there's no minimum requirement of time one needs to add to Shabbat to fulfill Tosefet Shabbat. 39 Melachos (vol 1, pg 150) rules like S"A that there's no specific minimum time for Tofeset Shabbat.
* Mishna Brurah 608:2 regarding Yom Kippur references his comments regarding accepting Shabbat early. There Mishna Brurah 271:22 quotes the Rosh who argues that a certain amount of time is needed. [Biur Halacha D"H Ayzo Zman posits that this period of time should be no longer than 3/4 of a mil (which is 13.5 minutes).] The Mishna Brurah 271:23 concludes that in order to fulfill the mitzvah of Tofeset Shabbat (adding onto Shabbat) one should refrain from work 30 or 20 minutes before sunset. See [[When does Shabbat start?]].</ref>
# One may not eat once one accepted Yom Kippur before nighttime. <ref>S"A 608:1 </ref>
