Tefillin for Chol HaMoed

On Chol Hamoed Pesach when does one remove their Tephillin. Are there different Practices? If so please list all.
Thank you.

Answer:

The original Ashkenaz custom was to leave on one’s Tefillin on Chol Ha-Moed until after Mussaf.

However, it later became custom to remove Tefillin before Mussaf, and this is the prevalent custom for most places where Tefillin are worn on Chol Ha-Moed.

In some communities Tefillin are not worn on Chol Ha-Moed, and those who wish to put them on at home.

Best wishes and a Gut Moed.
