And post 101 makes it sound like redeem and cancel no longer works. If we need to we could just buy 1K points for her, but it'd be cheaper for me to transfer 1K to her - if that works.

I tried it out and can now confirm, being the recipient of a transfer does reset the expiration by another year. ^
