When do you see the 15 nights posted to the BonVoy account after a Chase personal card is approved? I haven't had a new BonVoy card for so long I only know each year the clock starts anew, but have no clue on when would you see the additional 15 nights posted after you add one and the only personal card to the account.

Thirty nights, of course, pursuant to the credit card offer terms and conditions, interpreted pursuant to the Marriott Bonv∘y Terms & Conditions, under which they get the final word.

It is nice that, with the new 25 Elite Qualifying Night (EQN) bonus for holding the revised $650-annual-fee Brilliant AmEx card, one can now (since Thursday, 22 September 2022) earn 40 EQN per year if also holding a Marriott Bonv∘y business credit card that earns 15 EQN annually.
At least if living in the USA.

Your cards obviously are issued by AMEX US, so where you live in the world does not matter. Most readers of this forum fully understand what SPN Lifer meant I am fairly certain about this. LOL

Nothing inaccurate. At least if living in the USA, at most everyone who can obtain AMEX US card
Once I used to have SPG UK, SPG CA, SPG US and SPG JP cards at the same time and obtained EQN from each. Now it is not anymore with US and CA Bonvoy

You could clear up the dizzying confusion by avoiding the concepts of (a) where the cardholder is living or (b) where they have a billing address or (c) their citizenship by simply stating the member is eligible for US-issued Bonvoy cards. This avoids the frustrating and possibly harrowing ambiguity of pedantic micro-detail in online forums.

I am on track to reach 75 nights this year and my situation will be changing next year where that should not be as much of a challenge particularly if there is a 2 for 1 promo on EQNs in early 2023.
