Always consider the source, but I called a few different times and was consistently told:
- Rollover MQM deduction for 2024 status qualification will occur as usual at end of 2023/early 2024
- As the terms/conditions confirm, status earned for the 2024 is what is used for the 100k MQM/year extension option (initial info I reported from the Twitter agent was indeed incorrect, as we all thought)
- DM choice benefits will be provided for each year status is extended using 100k MQMs/year but PM choice benefits are provided only if the PM MQD threshold is reached.

For my own family, we'll have two people extend DM for four years in the 100k MQM/year scheme. Won't be able to justify Amex spend to try and obtain PM choice benefits. So we'll have to figure out how to split up and maximize ~600k in spend on other cards.
