I have 1 x Gold and 1 x Silver remaining. Do these need to be nominated by 31st March next year or 30th April? I thought new nominees / Jokers started with the new membership year which would be 1st April.

I am under impression I need to 'use or lose' the nominations by 31st March, as no new nominees will be issued to me on 1st April as I will not requalify, but my GGL 'card' will still be with me until 30th April.

So I think that means everyone dropping down must nominate by 31st March, however as nominations are for a full month, the best date to nominate will be 1st March, resulting in the nominee getting the upgrade from 1st March 2026 - 31st March 2027 inclusive.

Happy to be corrected!
Yes! You should nominate them before March 31st, so 1st March makes total sense!
