Although the qualifying period ends on 12/31 each year, your status remains intact through the end of February of the next year. In your case this means that you stopped qualifying for 2017 at the last minute of December, but you retain your status through the end of February (13 days from now).

I haven't heard of any. They are more flexible than the N. American carriers, but they did allow 18 months in the launch period. It's always worth asking, but I wouldn't have high hopes.
