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.

I said I would hold out, then jumped in out of curiosity - and then immediately clicked out of it once I saw that the numbers for my "Lifetime" nights for each subsidiary were actually just this year's accumulated nights...

Well I went ahead and pulled the trigger on this tonight - and everything (for now, at least) appears to be in perfect working order. The summary displayed prior to finalization did only reflect current year nights (without indicating whether they were/weren't current/lifetime), but all was well a few seconds later after taking the plunge. What's more, my LT status has updated to LT Plat, presumably to be updated to LTPP at some point between now and Jan 31. Also, my SPG Ambassador status is now reflected on the Marriott side, as well as SNAs from that account - as well as this year's spend (did have some prior to getting sidelined from travel back in Feb).
Finally, there're no more progress bars in the LT section of the mobile app - looks like they're satisfied that I'm done on that front!
(Oh, finally-finally - the years Plat counter only incremented by the addition of SPG, not yet this year's now combined Plat count of 50+ nights across the two legacy programs, for whatever that may be worth to some folks [unless they were somehow already counting that, but highly unlikely prior to combining in my opinion]...)

Yeah, it looks like a typo. I went ahead and combined the accounts. The math checks out. ^

I now have the following message on the Overview page on the website:
Congratulations on combining your accounts!
Your nights and points are already combined. We are transferring the rest of your activity now – this may take up to 72 hours. Please check back soon.

Hmmm, didn't the earlier notice say 24-18 hours? 72 may even be unrealistic!

This may have been answered previously... sorry if I missed it.
I understand you have until the end of the year to attain lifetime statuses with Marriott's legacy qualifications (if you reach the criteria for Legacy Lifetime Platinum with Marriott you are grandfathered into Lifetime Platinum Premiere Elite). If you combine your Marriott and SPG accounts, does this still hold true? I am short about 20 nights and will get them completed before the end of the year but I don't want to combine my accounts if it will stop me from getting Lifetime Platinum Premiere Elite.

The jury is still out as the the actually effects of combining your accounts. I have been advising caution. So if you don't need the benefits of a combined account now, I suggest holding off. This will make it much easier to track your progress to LTP under the legacy rules (do you already have the 2M points?). Also, keep in mind if your combined nights will exceed 750 and you have over 10 years Plat status, that will also get you into LTPP when they do the sweep after the end of the year. But again, if your new combined status bumps you in annual status, it might be wise to move forward now.

So if I am still hoping to earn lifetime gold ( new platinum) the old way with points this year, is it correct that I should NOT merge my spg account yet? Seems like the consensus is hold off.

There is no solid statement here, just conclusions (mine included). Look at what combining will buy you and if there is a benefit (having one account is not a small point), then combine. Personally, I would find it easier to see when I cross the line if I don't have to keep counting stays. Now this also presumes you only book SPG legacy properties under your SPG account.

My years look right in the app, but still can't see the lifetime year counter anywhere on the website. According to the App data (725 nights, 14 Years Plat), I should now at the least be LTG (based on LTG with SPG) and probably LTP (based on new qualification criteria), but no love yet. I'm guessing that there is still some batch run to check for that qualification. On the SPG app, I see the proper nights and years, but it also doesn't reflect my previous LTG with SPG status (it does show me as Platinum currently, but doesn't note any lifetime status). My year count seems off on the SPG side (I only had 3 Plat years and now it's showing 4).
