will I be eligible for the companion pass

[zxbui]

I currently have 90,000 SW points in my Rapid Rewards account, points earned from previous year (from 01/2017 to 08/2017). If I apply for the SW Rapid Rewards Plus card and get a 50,000 points after meeting the spending requirements, will I be eligible for the companion pass as my rewards account will now have over 140,000 points including the 90,000 points that was already in the account? Thank in advance

A-List status and Companion Pass are earned based on flights flown or RR points earned in a single calendar year. You need to earn 110,000 points between January 1, 2018 and December 31, 2018 to earn Companion Pass for the remainder of 2018 and all of 2019.  Points earned in previous years are yours to redeem towards flights, but do not count towards CP.
