AmEx BCE sign up bonus cash back date?

I got my AmEx Blue Cash Everyday in the mail on Monday.   For a sign up bonus if you spend 1,000 in three months you get 100.00 cash back.  When should be expecting 100.00 cash back in my account?  

 

I have not spend the 1,000 in my account yet, but I was trying to figure out when I would have the 100 bucks so I could budget better.

Check out this website http://www304.americanexpress.com/getthecard/side-by-side/bluecashever-bluecashpref/12006

 

Look at the chart next to Welcome bonus:    "$100 cash back after spending $1,000 within the first 3 months of Cardmembership"1

 

The foot note says "Offer valid for first-time American Express Cardmembers only. To qualify for the $100 bonus, you must make purchases with your Blue Cash EverydaySM Card from American Express that total $1,000 or more within your first 3 months of Cardmembership. The bonus will be awarded in the form of Reward Dollars, which will be added to your Reward Dollar balance 6-8 weeks after the spend threshold is met and can be redeemed at any time at a minimum of 25. Cash advances, balance transfers, interest charges, fees, and the purchase of American Express® Travelers Cheques and American Express Gift Cheques, or other cash equivalents, do not apply. Additional Cardmembers on your account are not eligible for this offer. To receive the $100 bonus, account must be active, in good standing, and not in default at the time the statement credit is posted to your account. "

 

 

I cant seem to find any about the welcome bonus in the stuff I got mailed as well as clicking around the amex site when I am logged in. Maybe they are wishing I forgot about I applied.  

 

I seem to have answered my own question by finding that part I underlined

I got a BCP in Aug with a similar deal. I charged the required amount before my first statement. The 100.00 showed up as rewards dollars a few days after my second statement closed. I redeemed it right away but I don't remember how long it took to actually show as a credit to my account. I think it was only a couple of days.

 

How long does it normally take everyone to redeem rewards once you have them? I've only done it the one time and my memory is a little rusty.
