How do we know when to choose select privileges, and when they have been done?

My wife has requalified for E50K and I will be requalifying for SE100K in the next 2 weeks (off by 122 AQMs right now).

I believe I have picked my wife's select privileges for next year - but I can not figure out how to confirm that. Looking at her dashboard, it talks about the select privileges she has, but not whether it is 2015 or 2016 select privileges (the plan was to pick the same select privileges for both 2015 and 2016). I see no email to confirm that she has picked 2016 select privileges.

For me, would not there be an option right now to pick E75K privileges. Not that I was going to do anything about it - but right now, I can not see anything on my altitude dashboard account to be able to do that.

If you're 122 AQM off of SE, I doubt they'd give you the E75K options. Even if you don't fly, chances are reasonably good that they'd give you SE anyway.

As for your wife, I have no idea. I know I chose my 2016 privileges, but I can't actually confirm that anywhere, because I choose the same options as 2015.

The eUps were deposited in my account, so that confirmed it for me.

Exactly the way I look at it as well. My E-credits have deposited as well with the February 2017 expiry

I just qualified for P25 for the first time, and my dashboard says I've qualified but my current status is "Qualification Pending" it's been like that for about a week now.

I'm in no real rush for anything, but am curious when my status will be confirmed.

Yes, I saw that my wife received those eupgrade credits.

However, there needs to be a more explicit and direct way for AC to confirm that the select privileges have been chosen - first by an email to the customer and then on the dashboard, that the select privileges chose represent those for the 2016 benefit year; rather than listing the select privileges without stating the benefit year that the select privileges are valid for.

Haven't received mine yet. But, I got early recognition for 35K, so hope to get this invitation soon. Then, I will qualify for 50K on NYE. So, as has happened to me in the past, I hope I get the privileges of both for 2016.

What do you mean prorated? I've had both lots in past years. Perhaps not intended?

Example:

E50K you can get 40 eups.
E75K you can get 55 eups.

When you cross E50, you'll get 40. When you hit E75K, you'll get another 15.

In my days, I used to get 40 + 55 = 95.
Now it's supposed to be 40 + 15 = 55

If you got them stacked and not pro-rated, you're lucky

My brother is at E35 on the altitude page and has 53 segments.

There is no button to select privileges.

Anyone have suggestion on how to proceed, and more importantly, how to make sure its for E50K?

Does he have 25 AC metal segments?

If so, just wait for a sweep.

Are there still sweeps this year? I passed E35K back in October (after early recognition) and E50K over the weekend, and since then my dashboard has only said "You've reached a higher Altitude status. Beginning early next year, you will be bumped up to your new level of privileges.". I don't think I'll be able to select anything until January.
