Tier status extended/bumped

My 2024 Select Plus "card" (electronic on the app) is good through 2/27/2025. I didn't know they awarded status in the current year as soon as you get over the TQP threshold.

My Select card (also electronic) has a "valid through" fate of 02/27/2025 as well.

TQPs earned on the credit card seem to hit my account a few days after the monthly statement is issued but always in monthly buckets. The TQPs earned from train travel (not ticket purchases) seem to be credited a couple of days following the travel, seemingly always in real time + a couple of days.

We're currently on a trip CHI to California and back. We've been on multiple trains in California across several days, and the train travel TQPs are being credited to my account in dribs and drabs.

Is it FNBO or Amtrak that is making the decision to bump AGR members up a tier? I was bumped to Select though I missed it by a a bit for this year, but I have already made Select and now working on Select Plus. I doubt I make it but it may be close due to credit card spend. I did earn some good TQP on the part of my summer trip that was not on points but I am not taking any long trips in sleepers for the rest of the year, so if I get there, or get close it is due to credit card spend.

It's AGR that decides whether or not to bump your status if you are a little short. FNBO has nothing to do with that decision, other than converting 1000 points to TQPs for every $5000 spent.

So Amtrak's call.
