If he renews in 2025, he will only get one more year, that is until feb 2027. No dead years anymore!
As I understand it, requalifying in 2024 would get you SEN up to 2/2026, that our colleague has it anyway, so I consider this a “dead year”.
In the future there will be no dead years but for the members that requalified with the old rules, and with status valid up to 2/2026 or 2/2027, 2024 in the first case, and 2024 and 2025, are dead years.
