How are you calculating the 5 years continuous period for the dependent? I have just confirmed with UKVI that even PBS dependent's are allowed to use the 90 days buffer period to cover the gap between visa start date and actual entry date.
On similar lines, I had a doubt whether the 90 days buffer that is given to the main applicants for any gap between visa start date and the actual travel date is applicable to the dependent's or not? So I wrote an email to UKVI and they have confirmed that similar rules apply to PBS dependent as wel...

Tier 1 extension can be applied for and granted even with 100% of foreign income. If you are eligible based on the points earned you just need to have all required documents like bank statements, salary slips etc to justify your application and you should be fine.
