That means I'd be paying ~$40 for all the Ambassador benefits for one year. Not a bad deal, assuming I have some upcoming IC stays.

How long after or prior to your Ambassador expiry do you have to renew (and receive the 15,000 points)? That is, can I let it expire and still "renew" 30 days later and have it still count as a renewal? Or do I have to renew immediately prior to expiry?
AFAIK, you can renew from around 90 days prior to expiry up to the day of expiry, but not beyond. After it lapses, usually, it has been considered a new sign up.
