Might be too late now. I do it after bloom when leaves turn brown.
The best time is after they flower - late July through September. Here's a short video to show you how:

I have always separated my iris in early fall--early September. But it will depend on where you live. Here is some good info for you: https://www.wikihow.com/Divide-Bearded-Irises
Thank You! Very Helpful!
Cut with a sharp knife before frost time (end of Oct on east coast) and plant separately. Use bulb booster fertilizer during replanting.
