Ok, I've decided on Chase Sapphire Preferred card to get my wife and I airline tickets to Cancun, and I need advice from people who have already taken advantage of this offer.
You get 40,000 points for spending 4k in 3 months, plus 5,000 Bonus Points After your First Purchase and the Adding of an Authorized User to your Account in the First 3 Months from Account Opening
This is the part that I'm trying to figure out. Specifically: If I add my wife as an authorized user, then does that make her ineligible for applying for a card and getting herself 40,000 points of her own. It would be stupid to chase 5,000 points if it means losing out on 40,000 more points in a few points.
Also, I've attached a screenshot...is this what I fill out to become eligible for the extra 5,000 points.
