Marriott Rewards (including Ritz-Carlton) - How quickly do Chase Rewards points post?

I'm helping my dad plan a trip in late August using points. He has a Chase Rewards card but has rarely used it.

In an effort to get him some additional points I'm encouraging him to use it more, but am not sure how realistic it is to get these points in time for his trip.

Do the points post monthly based on his cc statement date, or based on when the cc payment is received, or some other factor? And how long is the lag between what triggers the posting and when the points actually show up?

generally I see points post about 2-3 days after the statement appears available on-line............

If my statement closing date is the 30th, but I make a payment for the current balance (say $5,000) on the 15th, I wouldn't see the 5K points posting until the the 2nd or 3rd?

Edit: Sorry, I thought I searched for this in the Southwest forum....didn't realize it was the Marriot Rewards Forum.

my previous post said a few days after the statement posts..............I did not say after you make payment..........
