Confused about use year

[madrymeg]

We used to have a DVC timeshare when our kids were young. Now that we have grandchildren, we're in the middle of buying one again. But it's been so long, I can really remember specifics about Use Year. I know we get new points every year at our use year month. If we don't use points for a specific year, can we transfer them to the following year? All of them?

Yes you are correct. I have June use year and get my points every June. If I wasn't able to use my June 2025 points this year, I could bank them for 2026 as long as I bank by the end of January 2026. If I don't bank by then, my points will expire on May 31, 2026.

Thank you! If I bank them in time, are they good until May 2027?

If you have a June UY, yes, they'd be good until May 2027. But if you have a different UY, their expiration date would be based on that UY.

Basically, when you bank points you move them permanently into the following UY.

You have until the end of the 8th month of your UY to bank your points into the following UY.

(My UY is September, so I have to bank points no later than the end of April. Then they're good until the end of August the following year.)
