Tier1, late landing what is the problem?

[rehanann]

I got tier1 on Jan 10 2011, its expires 9 Jan 2013. I have few thing to settle down in current place and looking to move UK on april.
if I landed on april, i have to renew my visa after 1 years and 9 months, that will be the first renewal for 3 years.
then I will complete 4 years and 9 months.
what happen do I have to complete 5 years and then apply for the PR or 4 years is enough to apply for that, and also what happen in the 2nd renewals do I have to score again tier1 points for 2nd visa renewals.

2nd question is : if I will visit UK for a week then my counter start, and come back once for 90 days for personal premisis, also this leave will impact for the issuing PR and residency.
