Extending you tier-1 visa requires you to do it by applying from inside UK. It does not require you to have spent a specific period in UK before applying.

Hence you need not to worry. Just mention your overseas addresess to make up the two year addresses required on the form.

No! They dont! I have known people have just landed a week before there appointment in UK for visa extension, got extension and went back after that.
