Possible DC is different since it's technically cash back. I wouldn't risk it though. I'm sure others will chime in if I'm wrong.
Secondly I don't think you can directly pool TYPs with your wife. Though you can probably transfer into the same FF program as long as you're an AU on her card or vice versa.
You will be able to pool the points from both of the accounts you have open under your name. Just requires a phone call to Citi usually. Pretty painless.
That's not true, by converting you are not getting any bonus, so you can get a few TYP cards and get bonus on all of them, I tested it about 2 years ago, got 3 bonuses.
You can pool TYP with your wife. You need to request a form from Citi, fill it out, and send it to Citi, and they will pool your points.
