If people bought the membership today based on the above, how can they change the terms suddenly? They would have to put a stop to the program by stating "Anyone who buys the membership after Jan 1st will no longer be eligible for the rebate immediately". There has to be a proper cut off.
Looks like the absolute cutoff was 17 Dec, according to the guidance from BMWCCA (per BMW NA, as TurtleBoy pointed out), and according to the original requirement to purchase and file within 15 days of joining BMWCCA. That's what should be reflected on their website, however, you technically could still get a rebate by joining, purchasing and filing on or before midnight (presumably) 31 Dec 2019. So you could be eligible immediately for a rebate until the end of the year - as long as you didn't wait 15 days to file - which is not clear in the website. Obviously doesn't work when ordering a car and waiting for delivery, unless you purchase it 6 months from 1 Jan 2020 (if you joined BMWCCA then).
