I have Burgundy status with Qatar Airways so I am hoping to get Silver Status on FR program. Do you have any recommendations - should I wait for some time and use my card first, and only then apply for status transfer, or should I send the scanned copy of membership card and Qmiles statement right away?
Welcome to FT !

I would recommend that you send the scanned copy of your QR card and statement straight away. They are not adamant on you using the card before approving the tier match. Just make sure you have at least changed the card pin after receiving it.
Do post what your card kit contained.
