To me, the flexibility of Southwest RR points and booking flights I might cancel is really where the value is for me. My schedule changes. Also, the earlier you book, the better deal you usually get.
Only six (6) days left on this offer. My Chase approval for the individual card took 2 weeks this time, which is unusually long for me, but it recently came through so that was good.
3K - balance paid off - buffer.
e.g if I've received the bonus points on 02/23/2022, it's that means I am not qualified & apply? or can I apply & try not to spend 3k until my 2 yrs anniversary. is the bonus that was given out as companion pass promo also counted? TIA.

If you received bonus points within 24 months, you should wait to apply another time. You would probably be rejected.

No it does not.
Thank you
Doesn't matter which you get. Some prefer the lower annual fee card and some like having the benefits of the other
THERE IS ONLY THREE (3) FULL DAYS LEFT on this OFFER.
Snooze or Lose.
No it does not.
1) Will the points from meeting the minimum spending requirement post to my Southwest account in December 2023 or January 2024?
2)Does meeting the minimum spending requirement in December 2023 counts towards earning the Southwest Companion Pass in 2024 and 2025 (or just 2023 and 2024)?
I also have a Southwest business credit card where I plan to meet the minimum spending requirement in January 2024.

My opinion...you should be okay because points normally post at the statement close date. (Personally, I would have waited to complete the spend until early January---just to not give Chase a chance to screw me, but I think you are okay)
As to question 2...the companion pass qualifying is based upon when the points hit your SWA Rapid Rewards account. And companion point qualification resets each Dec 31/Jan 1
Therefore, you want both sets of points to post in 2024 so you get both individual and business bonuses in 2024 to your Rapid Rewards account to get you over the top on Companion Pass for early 2024.
[[ IF YOU HAD one card hit its bonus in December, you'd get to keep the points of course, but the 'companion pass qualifying' issue would reset on Dec 31, and you would have missed that opportunity to use them in 2024 for companion pass qualifying.]]
