Absence Counting

[robin92]

Hi, my first entry in UK was in december 2015, so my periods of 12 months should go from demceber to December.
I will leave the country for 11 months this year in September,Can I split the 11 months coming back to UK for 1 week and still qualify ?
I mean

December 2016 to 2017, I would absent from September 2017 to December 2017, that is 3 Months.
Than I stay another 2 months and i will come back in UK at end of January .
If I stay one week in UK and leave again for another period until the end of the period of 6 months?
I will be eligible on December 2020, I have another doubt, can I shift the period of counting instead December ,say March ? I mean when applying for PR , can I wait for example March 2021( instead of December 2020) and consider 5 year period from March 2016 to March 2021? This way I'm able to be absent from September 2017 to February 2018, come back one week or 2 and then leave again for another 5 months, in this case absences would be inside the limit of 6 months every 12 months . But the question is if it possible to shift my qualifying 5 years or not ...
Is that ok ? Does this qualify to be eligible ? Or in that week in UK I have to be a qualified person ? (Working/studying /self employed)?
Thanks
