Good point, that actually works out better for me as its only $1K spend for 40k across all 3 personal cards. Anyone have feedback on whether Priority is worth the AF ($149 vs $69 on the plus)? It has 4 upgrade bookings but are those vouchers (usable after card is closed)? Also states $75 travel credit but it doesn't specify whether that is granted the first year.

Don't count on getting approved in the next few days, if you haven't applied yet. I had to wait 9.5 days, and some others had to wait at least 10 (between application date and approval date). No way to speed that up (without greatly increasing the risk of denial ).

In our case, getting the more expensive cards are well worth it. Between the bonus miles and the upgrades, well worth it. Picking up wifi on the Biz card has only marginal benefit to us, but would be great for many.
Yes, you get the $75 the first year.

Applied this weekend, approved a few days later today after identity verification. No questions about my $1 annual revenue "business"
I was 4/24 before applying for this biz card, wonder if I can still apply for the personal card to hit 110k for cp?

All the data points I have read say they do not look at the BIZ card when counting 5/24.

Yes, but I suggest you wait until later this year to do so. Chase doesn't like it much when you apply for two cards "too close" together in time.

Good advice since it's October and he/she has a $5k spend to make on the business.
Our first CP flight is April 17, unless he/she has a CP flight planned for January I wouldn't apply for the personal card until at least December.

You should be good to go for the new ( or any business card if you haven't received the bonus in 24 months) business card, certainly worth a shot before spending $35K for a year of CP..................Take that spend to the AA churn,
You also said "we" did you both the the California CP card ? If not you could do what me and my wife do, one gets CP every 2 years, my wife;s expires 12/31/2019

We Did get the Business card and getting 80K on it this month. That's the additional 35k (well 30K now) that we have to spend on it next 2months to get CP for her.
Family of four. So, like to have 2 CPs optimally.

Sorry wasn't clear: All three PERSONAL cards were denied since we got the California card in 11/2017. So Personal Plus, Premier, and Priority all were denied these past two months.

Also, keep in mind, any spend AFTER the Dec statement will go into next year - not this year.

If you got the California card in November 2017 I'm guessing the bonus POSTED shortly thereafter, 24 months AFTER that bonus posted you can get a personal card again.
If the bonus posted ( example) 1/10/2018 then you should be able to get a personal card again on 1/20/2020............giving it a few days cushion...........that will take you to CP for 2020/21 when combined with the 80K business.
BTW, you only need 25K as the 80K card has a $5k spend, actually $5k PLUS the AF so $5200 ish
IMO the LAST thing you want to do is have the 80k points post in 2019 and get CP only for the remainder of 2019 and 2020, let the 80K post in 2020 then get another personal card or if need be the 25K points via spend, etc
This way you will have CP for most of 2020 and all of 2021

Chase normally gives ~ 110 days to compete the spend from the day the application was approved
