When will UA show our extended status?

The mystatus.united page still says it will be updated "in a few weeks." I know Delta already shows the extended status. Understand that UA is focused on higher priority things , but curious if anyone else is seeing anything different.

We’ll see the extended status on February 1, 2021, when we get new digital MileagePlus cards.

Traditionally, UA does not show status for the next year until 1 Feb of that year.

What is the concern? The statement by UA is pretty clear.

I am a Plat for 2020 and mystatus.united.com shows the following (just under "My Premier activity")
Congratulations, you’ve already qualified for Premier Platinum level for 2021. And keep flying to reach Premier 1K for 2021.
And no, I have not met the reduced requirements for next year

This happened a while ago for me. In the app at least it shows my Platinum status as expiring 1/2022 and the MileagePlus card in my apple wallet also reflects that later expiration date.

have you tried looking there? The mystatus.united.com page shows the same as above.

Thanks for your help and for confirming. I was hopeful that my MM companion's Gold status would get extended by a year, because United originally told her via email that her status would be extended. And so I switched my companion. But it seems like companion statuses are not being extended.

MM companion status is based on the elite they are connected to, and is not independent status. Asking a general agent about MMer status is unreliable as this is a niche item and you likely got a stock answer about extending earned status (which MMer companion is not).
Also, you will not be able to switch MM companion mid-year, once selected that can only be changed in November.
This is fully discussed in Million Miler companion benefit

My MileagePlus card in the app now shows my Premier Silver status (from Marriott Bonv°y Titanium Elite, via RewardsPlus) as expiring 1/2022 vice 1/2021.

LT GS here; it has always updated just one year at a time. It now shows 1/22. But my MM companion's is still showing 1/21.

makes sense because presumably you could change your companion ...
