If you have a balance, will the IRS just send you a check for the extra amount? Seems like an easy way to MS if that is the case. I wouldn't risk MSing with the IRS but some SDers are nuts and they don't care.
Generally looking at point transfers to airlines. Most of the flights I look at, I compare the retail $ amount of the flight to the points needed for the same award flight and it comes out to about the same price like a $200 flight would be 20,000 points needed for example.
I've also never really had an opportunity to use it on the ones where you get a bonus when transferring though. Like Avios is 1 to 1.4x right now for transferring points I guess? Or Aeromexico 1 to 1.6x, but I don't generally fly those

Yeah avios is 1.4 right now from Amex... as I mention I recently booked a flight that was ~350 cash... with the bonus I got over 3 cents a point, but even without it I was getting a bit over 2.

You get a virtual card number right away
You have almost a month beyond the 12 months to pay the statement that includes the second annual fee. So no, you don't have to pay 2 annual fees.
That's only happen instantly approved, otherwise will receive Card within two days after approve.
Yup... which is why the "ideal" time to open a new card can depend on when the benefits reset so you can maximize double dipping.
For example the best time for this card would likely be to get it (in hand) mid-may... this would let you get 4 uses out of the Saks credit instead of 3 for example... (1H 22, 2H 22, 1H23, and, just barely, 2H23).
Similar deal with the Dell credits on the Biz version.
(nearly all the other benefits reset on calendar year, so long as you're not opening in late December you're probably fine for double dipping)
But one must balance that against if a given signup bonus is only available for a limited time.

Found a referral link on the web and it worked great for the 150K. Thanks OP!
