It seemed that loyalty points in previous months always posted to my next statement, though, and didn't take 8-10 weeks, so I think everything will be fine. If not, the world will not end.
Forget about the "8-10 weeks" language all together.

Purchases in January and February will post to whatever statement they normally would, i.e. the next statement.
