Maybe that's the issue. I only started using the card in July, passed the target mid July.
JT posts indicates the 3 months lag wasn't the case for her.
I thought you just mentioned above that you have not passed the $12k target?
The 3 month/12 week lag is not always enforced, the only consistent finding is that there is no consistency with when they credit the bonus. The theory of a "sweep" has been thrown around and it would make sense for an automated system to do it, because there are reports of receiving the bonus within a few weeks to waiting the full period. Depends on when you meet the target in relation to your statement cycle.
Shame they aren't doing a lower spend requirement/lower bonus like they are doing with the Qantas card. I checked and the offer through internet banking is the same.
*Amplify Signature Bonus Points Offer: To be eligible to receive up to 200,000 bonus Amplify points over 2 years, you must apply and be approved for a new Amplify Signature Credit Card between 23rd May 2019 and 2nd October 2019. You'll receive 100,000 bonus Amplify points when you spend a minimum amount of $12,000 on eligible purchases on the credit card within the first 12 months from card approval. You'll receive an additional 100,000 bonus Amplify points in the second year of your credit account being open, if you spend a minimum of $12,000 on eligible purchases within the subsequent year. If you do not meet the minimum spend in one year, you forfeit the bonus points for that year only, however you are still eligible for bonus points in subsequent years if you meet the minimum spend in subsequent years during the promotional period. Eligible purchases do not include BPAY or BPAY equivalent transactions, fees, cash, cash equivalent transactions, refunds, balance transfers debited from the card account, government fees and ATO payments. Existing customers who currently hold a Amplify Platinum or Amplify Signature card issued by St.George, Bank of Melbourne or BankSA, or who have held one in the last 12 months, are not eligible for this offer. The bonus points will be credited to your points balance within 12 weeks after the eligible spend criteria is met. Interest free days do not apply to credit cards with balance transfers, you'll be charged the applicable purchase rate on any spend that you make whilst you have an outstanding balance transfer.
