Have to contact Chase and it takes another month for them to post the additional points. What if they don't post until January/February . . .

If renewing Ambassador renews Spire, I won't worry about getting every possible point by Dec 31. But seems like OP won't know until Jan.1 if renewing Ambassador in Sept did, in fact, extend Spire status.through 2019.
Pretty sure renewing AMB only gets you Platinum but may be wrong.

Certainly wouldn't take the chance and would be doing a 5k bonus points stay if required as those all count
