How will my Eligible Status Years for 2022 be applied to my Account and when?

If you maintained the same Elite status in 2022 that you started with in 2022 , your 2022 Eligible Status Year for your current status will be applied to your Account in January 2023.

If you achieved a higher Elite status during 2022, your 2022 Eligible Status Year for the new, higher tier was applied at the time of achievement.

If you did not meet the published criteria to renew your current status in 2022, your 2022 Eligible Status Year for your current status will be added in January 2023, and your Eligible Status Year for your new status will be added in March 2023 when your Elite status is updated.

===

When will my 2021 qualifying year of Elite status be applied to my Account so I can track my path to Lifetime Elite Status?


As part of our regular process, Members receive their qualifying year towards Lifetime Elite status in one of two ways:
  1. If you maintain the same Elite level that you started the year with, your Qualifying Year of Elite status will be applied to your Account in January of the following year. Please Note: In November 2021, when we extended the Elite status that Members earned in 2019 or 2020, Members received their 2021 Qualifying Year of Elite status.
  2. If you achieve a higher Elite level during the year than the previous year, your Qualifying Year for the new, higher level will be applied at the time of achievement. Please Note: If you achieved a higher Elite level during 2021, your 2021 qualifying year of Elite status, was applied at the time of achievement.

If you maintain the same Elite level for 2022, your 2022 year of Elite status will be applied to your Account in January 2023. If you achieve a higher Elite level during 2022, your 2022 year of tenure for the new, higher level will be applied at the time of achievement.

Examples:
  • A Member achieved Gold Elite in 2019 and enjoyed the status in 2020. They received their 2020 year of Gold Elite status in July 2020 when we extended their status. Due to status extensions, the Member received their 2021 year of tenure in November 2021 when they their status was extended to February 2023.
  • A Member achieved Platinum Elite in 2020 and enjoyed the status in 2021. They received their 2021 year of Platinum status in November 2021 when they their status was extended to February 2023.
  • A Gold Elite Member achieved Platinum Elite in April 2021; the Platinum year of Elite status for 2021 was applied upon achievement (in April 2021).

It was definitely worth the mattress run to get a 10th year of Plat for 2022.
I guess I will be able to cancel both my Amex cards this year as I won't need EQN anymore.
There's always earning up to Titanium.

Lifetime Plat is the sweet spot at Marriott as higher lifetime status is no longer an option

Sorry about that. Was one of the folks who sprinted to make it to LTT in 2018.

Way to go for 2022 Marriott IT.
I’m seeing the same bug (also with 9 years and over 600 nights).

Has anyone lost years recently? Over the last 2 years I've dropped from 14 to 12 years of Plat despite being Ambassador the whole time.

I got Marriott to admit that "our records show you have chosen SNA's for your 50 night annual choice benefit award for 2018-2021." So I choose SNA's 4 years but they still claim I was only a Platinum for 3 years.

The plat year for 2021 is supposed to be credited next year, unless you achieve a higher tear sooner.

This morning they finally agreed and credited me the 4th year. They claim they can only track nights the current and previous year, so that was a dead end but they can track annual choice benefit awards for many years.

The website is tracking me correctly at over 10 years as Platinum but the app says I have 7 out of 10. Hopefully this is just a typical glitch.

In my experience, they see your highest status and nights for the year.

This is just what I've been told in years past by FD commenting ( back when I literally lived in a hotel)

Here is one:

https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/marr...on-thread.html

Note that there is no Marriott Bonv°y Ambassador Elite lifetime status. The highest lifetime status that can be earned currently is Lifetime Platinum Elite. (Lifetime Titanium Elite could be earned through Monday, 31 December 2018, a date that will live in Bonv°y infamy.)
