I'm curious, are eligible sectors like SCs - ie. do they expire on a 12 month rolling basis, or do they only count in the current annual membership window?

For example, I have gold until November or October or something (and also for the next year), however I will have enough rolling SCs for platinum in March, and so long as "eligible sectors" are rolling 12m as well it should be fine - but, if they only count in your whatever current status membership year cycle (ie. mine ending around the end of this year) and reset, then they won't.

I couldn't find any information on this anywhere, thanks.
 
I believe it is the same as for the SC earn criteria:

- For Qualification that is 365 days
- For Requalification it is from review/qualification date to review date.

serfy is correct, they are on the same cycle as the SC

From the T&Cs:

To upgrade your status, you need to have flown the number of Eligible Sectors and earned the number of Status Credits set out below during the previous 365 days – calculated daily on a rolling basis.

Once you upgrade to a higher level of membership, you will have 12 months (from the day of your upgrade to your new Review Date) to achieve the required number of Status Credits and Eligible Sectors to maintain your membership.
