Lifetime points are missing from the profile section of the website and show as 0 in the Marriott mobile app. However, you may be able to use the work-around referenced in this blog post to see your current Lifetime Points.
You can still view your lifetime points online with the following steps:
If you call Marriott they can also tell you your lifetime points balance.
http://www.marriott.com/marriott/rew...te-benefits.mi As of 20 May, this process does not work. There is no link called "Night Detail" on this page.
To check lifetime balances: (HT to txpenny)
1. Click "Night Detail".
2. Click "Learn More" (under the night total)
3. Click "Marriott Rewards Overview". At this point you're probably no longer logged in (because you've been thrown to an older version of the Marriott website), so log in again.
4. Click "Nights" under your current year's nights. -> The detail you're expecting showing LT nights and points will show up like before.
Lifetime Silver Elite:
250 qualified nights
1.2 million points
Lifetime Gold Elite
500 qualified nights
1.6 million points
Lifetime Platinum Elite
750 qualified nights
2.0 million points
To check your point and night balance, log into your account and click My Account > Account Overview > Nights.
"Elite Lifetime Status is determined by your total qualified nights stayed and points earned throughout the course of your membership – including your paid nights, Elite rollover nights, meeting nights and the nights and points earned on your Marriott Rewards Credit Card."
Points used by members to buyback their previously attained Elite level will be permanently deducted from their Lifetime point balance.
If an elite's point level drops below that required for the level attained, they will drop down to the next Lifetime level until points are accumulated to get them back to the next level.
Lifetime points in addition to nights now display on your Marriott Rewards account. When logged in, click on "Nights" (the blue link below the number representing your current year nights). You'll see the detail of what comprises your current year nights as well as your Lifetime Status nights.

You can buy up to 50k points at 1000 points for $12.50. So it would cost a whopping $375 to get to lifetime Plat -> Plat Premier that way.
Or you can transfer from Chase Ultimate rewards, or you can transfer from United, or you can transfer from someone else (but their lifetime points total will go down by the amount yours goes up, so they have to not care about that), or you can apply for a new Marriott credit card if you don't have the same type aleady.
Or you could even a mix of those if you wish.
Plus, if you do any paid stays before the end of the year, those points will count too.

I seem to recall you already posted about this in another thread.

So long as you are PP or P that will be your overriding status. You will not rely on LTP unless you fall below P, or under the new system in may be P75 where you will rely o LTPP. As a data point, I did not requalify as P for this year having stayed only a dozen or so nights last year. When I go into the site it states P, not LTP, even though I am only at P because of my LTP.

Has it been confirmed that transferring United Airline miles into MR do count towards lifetime status? If so, is there a maximum that can be transferred in a year? Is the ratio 1:1?

I can confirm it applies toward lifetime status. Can't confirm the max, but I believe it's 50K per year.

...
My assumption, though, was for purposes of determining status in the new program if you are presently both LTP and P or PP, while your status is considered a present P or PP you will be among those grandfathered into LTPP status so when you are relying on LT status you will be LTPP. Is there anything indicating that will or will not be the case?

As for the merge, your MR LTP status will determine if you will get MPG LTPP (as it stands now). I expect MPG to wise up and bring the numbers together before decided where people fall on the scale of status, both regular and LT.

Maybe I am reading this wrong, but when I click Details it shows two columns. On the left column there are "Nights stayed" and "Bonus Nights" and "2018 Total" which is well below 75. On the right it shows my LT totals, which are double the nights and points required. The label shows "Platinum Lifetime Status" which I always assumed labeled the column, but are you saying that actually is reporting my status? Other than there, everywhere else it only states "Platinum Elite" and I had fewer than twenty stays in Marriott properties last year. I actually went places where Starwood had better choices (Prague, Bali) and made a mistake and stayed in the LM near Patpong in Bangkok which was okay but nowhere near as nice as the similarly priced Marriott options nearby which do not require walking past ping-pong bars to get to BTS. Heck, the CY is a better option as it has a CY, is in a quieter yet more convenient location and has a great staff, But I digress....

The site is messed up though. It shows me on one page as Platinum Elite and on another page as Lifetime Gold. In reality I'm Lifetime Platinum Elite. And I was just mailed my new Lifetime Platinum Elite Marriott card. Go figure.

I'm not sure where the confusion is. Yes, you are Lifetime Platinum. By definition, that means that you will be "Platinum Status" for your lifetime. In other words... "Lifetime Platinum" is not an annual status... it is a state of perpetually being "Platinum Status". So, "Platinum" is all that you will ever see as your status. Make sense?

I need ~40 elite nights to qualify for LT platinum.
Considering Marriott CC spend or meetings, but also considering booking 40 nights at a category 1 hotel somewhere probably using points. Is there a list of Category 1 hotels? Any of em near an airport?
