Funny flew tango fare on the 28th and points were posted in 24 hours. Tango plus fares three to six days, UA in 2 days, TAP in 2 days! It's a slow process with air Canada flights.
I fly home on the 3rd where I become *SE and fly back out on the 9th and want to upgrade on all four segments so I will be in the same boat!

Looks like I will use the online form to request the missing miles, but it asks for boarding pass number (and suggests a 3 digit code in their example). I don't see any such number on boarding pass .

Hmm, Mrs Mapleg and I are both missing an AC flight we took a week ago. The outbound flight posted in a couple of days, but nothing for the inbound flight.

My missing miles appeared in about 4 or 5 weeks.
Good luck.

You know, I have been 100% for the past three months. I just did 4 (YVR-YYC-LAX) out of 4 (LAX-YYZ-YOW), half at the gate and half four days out. I hope being *SE does not make me miss out 
as an *E the Upgrade Gods have been kind to me! ^
Will Call AP today as I am within my 7 day window now and I want to upgrade but need those new credits for hitting 100,000!

I upgraded 3/4 flights YYC-YVR-HNL for my wife and I - only I am waitlisted (such a gentleman) but the flight is wide open up front. Pretty sure I'll clear by the gate.
Have had about 4 flights in 25 this year that didn't clear, which is pretty good considering the bulk of my requests have been on YYC-YYZ...

So my status has updated - e-creds have posted for the select priviledges, but still waiting on the threshold amounts.
But most importantly ---- waitlist cleared on the 2nd seat (for myself) at T-54 ---- woohoo, upgraded all the way through to HNL.
No R games for me!

Alwasy nice when it works the way its suppose too and HNL is always good no matter where on the plane you are, but the front is always nice. Still an E with 11 credits left waiting for my offical SE notice. Today at t-96h I am using 10 of the 11 credits and have been succesfull in my upgrade YOW-YYZ-YYC-LAX.....just four more hours for the final upgrade LAX to YVR! Yup this was a milage run booked over a month ago for less money than YOW-YVR!!
