Welcome to FlyerTalk. If for some reason that the usual before Oct 31 didn't kick in (I will be upset too for myself) you will get the status in Dec/Jan when they send out your 2018 welcome status email and you will be able to select your 2018 Privileges and you will get them right away for stuff like eUpgrade Credits.
My last scheduled flight is on Dec 8th, but only #48/50 atm.

What we are discussing in this thread is mainly when you will get your 2018 qualified status in 2017.

Took about 5 days from qualifying to E35 to having it show in my profile today (Altitude until now was saying E35 was my next goal despite having exceeded the requirements).
Will have enough to get to E50 as soon as they update my AQD from last flight flown on October 9th.

I am now over 75 AQS (my AQD are fine), but I am still E50K as of right now. Like a few others had reported previously. I will check again in the afternoon and see if it will update and let me select my Privileges. I will hit SE100K on my next Monday flight and hence will need to get this resolve before next Thursday, so, I get to select my E75K Privileges prior to select the SE100K Privileges.
-- update --
Look like I just check too early and I can select my E75K Privileges now. AC App was showing E50K before I board my flight at 6:55am and it is now E75K when I landed 8:15am.

E35K/E50K Status for a Gift - what happen if did not gift it by Oct 15
Just got my E75K status Today (Oct 16) and under Bundle #1 , it still let me select E35K status as a gift. When you click "more info" it does say the gift must be give out by Oct 15. I do want to give this to my wife, but not sure if I do select this, will it even still let enter my wife AP number.
Any E75K/SE100K FTers actually have this experience to share?

With recent experience, a rare Monday morning dashboard update with all the flights up to last Friday flight activities, so, only 3 days and update on a Monday.

My flights from Saturday will clear in 2 more days I think, hoping it'll still recognize all that and give me early recognition for E35k

Yes, it should work. Next year, assuming you do hit SE and the option is still part of the package, you will be able to gift her E50K for the year. One thing to remember, if you hit early S100K and gift her the 50K this year, you won't be able to gift the 50K to her next year until March 1, when the current 50K expires. You cannot gift a status to someone who currently has that status.

Cow is your man, he has the "program" while I use Excel (and calculator sometimes ..... and also I will cost you more money for the flight 
Yes, let's hope AC not going to decide and change this habit/policy this year... as my SE AQS will be posted next Friday.
