If I am an authorized user on my DHs AMEX Gold, can we transfer his MRs to my United account?

Amex MRs don't transfer to United. You would need Chase URs.

Already answered that MR can’t be transferred to UAL but I just wanted to add on that they can only be transferred to accounts in the main persons name.

Chase is the same way so if he had a transferable point earning card he could only transfer them to his UAL account however UAL allows pooling and you could create a pool and invite your husband and then he would be able to add those to your United Pool. Only bad thing I can see is that the Pool is only able to book UAL specifically and not partners plus it takes 24 hours once you add to the pool for them to be useable.

I wish other airlines would allow this pooling as it would really help families.

For both Chase and Amex, you can transfer to the partner account of an authorized user. For Amex, the authorized user needs to have been added at least 90 days before.

Thanks for correcting me. I was always told the opposite but with Chase it didn’t matter too much as we could transfer CUR between users.
