Ah, and taxable is ONLY Banking? I'm curious to see if I get a 1099 this year, because I'll be redeeming well over $600 worth, but won't have earned 60K with banking. Also curious to see if they use the point total or the redemption value total (75K on US/AA = $750 or $1200?).

If my Earning + Redemption + Transferable balance isn't an error, it looks like they definitely use points earned with Banking/Taxable points first, which I guess makes sense. In a way that's nice, because you can burn through the banking points without decreasing the number you're able to transfer.
