Barclays EQM in 2022
If one were to spend 40K on Barclays in Jan & Feb would they be credited the bonus EQM for 2022 before the switch to the new points system? i am very close to 120K which would get me 2 more System Wide upgrades and the bonus EQM would push me over, i have a the ability to put the spend on this card before 2/28 but only want to use this card IF i will get the EQM in 2022, otherwise it will go on biz AMEX for the 1.5 points per $ for charges over 5K

For EQM, the amount you spent in January and February will add-on to the eligible spending in 2021. If you already earned CC-based EQM in 2021, then the extra spending will not trigger another round of EQM. This is confirmed via the FAQ.
At the same time, the amount you spend in Jan and Feb will earn Loyalty Points.
