I have appended your question to the established thread on this topic. Membership Rewards (USA) points points for normal spending post a few days after the next statement closes, but you can see the points pending shortly after the statement closes.. For example, if your closing date was February 22, the points for that billing cycle would post around March 24, provided you had paid the statement balance in full. You can ask customer service to manually post the pending points sooner, provided you have already paid the balance. Pre-paying the balance will not cause the points to automatically post sooner, you must ask.

Bonus points are different. They may post as soon as the spending objective is achieved, or as long as 12 weeks later. This depends on the terms of the offer, and also on luck. Many bonuses appear to be posted through a batch process, and there is no way to predict when the next batch job is scheduled.
