Planning to apply this card for my wife. The bonus 5000 points wont post until the anniversary date?

I wonder how many of us will remember and follow up if there is a one year lag between posting the points. @:-) Time to add a note for next years calendar.

T&C: " 5,000 Bonus Points: You will receive 5,000 bonus points with this bonus offer. You will receive your anniversary bonus if you make a qualifying transaction during the first year of enrollment. Qualifying transactions include purchases, balance transfers, and any checks that are used to access your account, and exclude cash advances. Please allow 6 to 8 weeks from your account anniversary date the first year for bonus points to post to your account. To qualify for this bonus offer, account must be open and not in default at the time of fulfillment. This bonus offer is valid only for first time Marriott Rewards Visa Cardmembers. Existing Marriott Rewards Visa Cardmembers are not eligible for this bonus offer"

The silver visa signature card and business card also offers a free night cert and 10 nights credit towards elite status, the wording clearly says for every year, but the premier visa T&C does not mention the "every year" part. I know it's still every year. may be they forgot to update the T&C on that one.
