There is no added benefit to getting the CP qualification completed before 3/1 that will not exist after RR2 goes into effect.
I can't agree with that assertion. In future years the CP credit count will reset to zero at midnight on New Year's Day (Herb Time? PST?). This year folks have the opportunity to combine, what, 12 months? of prior earnings with a last minute points transfer to earn a CP good for at least 22 months. Someone with zero or very few points earned in the past year would do better making a huge transfer just after 1/1 of some future year (thus earning a 24-month CP), but most folks would be much better off taking advantage of the transition rule quirks.
