Is this correct
No more paper certs for making status before qualifying period ends
I made 2011 Elite for third consecutive year on Dec 4-10. Picked benefits today after finally receiving email. Spoke with AP to fix an account issue and also learned that I cannot use 2011 eupgrades until March 3, 2011. In previous years, I received paper certs for that expired end of Feb. I Have travel planned end of Jan but have no way to upgrade.

Welcome to FT!
You are correct. I. Previous years you could use you new certs as soon as you received them ( ie Jan). Not so this year.
Though Andrew from AC did mention in one of his posts in Dec that extra certs will be sent out- though it is not clear to me if that means with the new packages, or only to those who have crossed a threshold in Dec
