If I gift gold now (versus later), does that impact the eligibility period? Like if if I wait til Feb 28th, does that buy the whole next program year versus just this year. Similarly, if I take the SWUs now, when will they expire versus taking them Feb 28, 2024? I don't want to click to far and mess anything up.
No idea on the timing as to how the gift of gold status works.

But for SWU's, definitely do not select them now if you don't need them. They expire exactly 1 year from the date of selection.
