You can apply no more than 28 days before your qualifying 5-year residency period.

Generally that coincides with the expiration but not always. If you delayed your entry to a period of less than 3 months after your entry clearance was granted then the case worker may count that period.

But the total period between entry clearance and application date can in no way be less than 5 years minus 28 days.
