How many miles we can buy and receive at the same time ?

Hello

Very very new with US airways, so I do apologie for this easy easy question

I put on hold an award in F from CDG-BKK in February. I need 110.000 miles

I'll buy 100.000 miles
My wife will buy 10.000 miles and will transfer them to me

Is it allowed to receive 110.000 miles (100 buy + 10 transfer) ?
How long do they need to be posted ?

Thank you so much

Sorry for this additional post, how long it takes for the miles to be posted ?
Assume it's the same to buy or transfer ?

I presume you mean by 50K and get 50K bonus, which is the limit for buying. I'm not sure about the transfer limit, but I'm sure 10K is below it.

In any case, I did a buy and a transfer for the bonuses last month and they each posted essentially immediately. I refreshed my account and there the points were.

Thank you so much Erfreulich, yes I meant 50 + 50 bonus.
Glad that we can both buy and transfer so I'll have enough to "pay" for a F award with SQ ... oops sorry with Thai

You're fully right erfreulich, the miles were posted within 10 mns.
I bought 110 k (50 +50 bonus) + (10 without bonus in a separate transaction)
