Have RCI deposit deadlines changed?

Has anyone confirmed the current deadlines for when expiring points now need to be deposited into RCI?

Below is from the Deposit First Section of the RCI disclosure document Effective June 1, 2019. (page 8 #2) that @CarolMN posted on March 19th.
According to the RCI Disclosure Document (page 8, Deposit First section, #2),

2. Vacation Time must be deposited with DVC Member Services no more than 11 months (7 months if the DVC Member is depositing Vacation Time from an Originating Resort other than his or her Home Resort), before the commencement date of the deposited week. Deposits of Vacation Time received by DVC Member Services from 45 days up until 14 days before the commencement date of the Vacation Time being deposited also are accepted; such deposits can only be used to reserve accommodations from 44 days up until 24 hours in advance of the travel dates desired.

However, the current disclosure document (page 9 #2) now on the member website Effective June 1, 2020 has dropped the last sentence, and I could not find any information similar to what was in the dropped sentence anywhere in the updated disclosure.

ETA: Interestingly, when you click on the link CarolMN posted it takes you to the old document. I would have thought when DVC put out an updated document, they would delete the old document

It does look like they have updated the disclosure document since I posted in March. The Members website now takes you to the June 2020 update. Like you, I can't see any reference to deposit deadlines in the update. Looks like those who need to know will have to call. I suspect the update was done because of the pandemic closures and extended points.

Thanks. If anyone does call and asks about RCI deposit deadlines, could you please post what you were told on this thread.
Regardless of the policy, we will not be making a decision about depositing into RCI until after Aug 1st, so I hate to tie up the phone lines.

ETA: Very frustrating that DVC appears to have yet another unpublished policy.

As I have posted before, I think on this an many other issues: DVC needs to make a decision on what their policy will be, publish the details of that policy, and apply it consistently to all members. It would even be acceptable for DVC to announce they have not made a final decision, but once they do make that decision the policy will be applied consistently to all members. The current situation appears to be, depending on what day you call, something that DVC approved yesterday might not be approved tomorrow or vice versa.
