MEP LAND and ME-IR

Hi guys,
If the MEP Land has expired, but the ME-IR is still valid ( I had taken my MEP LAND CPL skill test one month earlier than the MEP-IR skill test), am I eligible for the interview with MEP LAND expired?

Furthermore, If I will pass the assessment, do I have to keep my ME-IR valid before starting the type rating? Or it's still applicable that the ME-IR might be expired at the start of type rating.

Thanks!
