Re: got answer

Did you ask about the work related or personal holidays? I don't think any paid leave comes under 'work-related' absences comment that they have given in the SET (o) form.

Re: Entry Date or visa stamping date

Rule is : If the period between EC and Date of entry is less than 90 days than you can apply 28 days before EC date(visa issue date). so i think you should be fine.
