When I matched the 80k with the 100k offer, I was told to secure message back once the spend was complete. Completing it on Tuesday, I sm'd Wedesday, and was told the 80k points had to post before I could request the add'l 20k. Hence my question.

Points will post the day after your statement closes. For example, if your statement closes on the 24th, points will post on the 25th. For points to post with a statement, the charges can't be in a pending status. So if you charged $200 somewhere on the 23rd, but it didn't post until the 25th, it would go on the next statement. If that $200 is what would trigger the bonus, then it would be pushed off a month.

I'm in the same spot as you. My bonus will post Tuesday, so on Wednesday I'll be checking back in with Chase for the 20k bump.
