I’m a bit confused. I will reach Gold later this month (end of April 2022). Will my Gold status expire March 31, 2023 or March 31, 2024?
Easiest way to think of it is:
You get a full year of elite status starting the next status year, plus the remainder of the year in which you earned it. Many people take a whole year to earn, so they get 12 months if they took till the end of the earning period.
Those like you, who earn it quickly, get a MUCH longer time at their status level.
