So confused help please

To clarify, do you need to be actively employed in your qualifying job for your loans to be eligible for forgiveness? I wasn't aware that teaching qualified under the PSLF. I resigned from my teaching position last year. I completed all the paperwork on April 13th this year and found out last week that two of my longer-term loans might be eligible for forgiveness. I was still teaching when those loans could have been forgiven. I have two other loans that are further from eligibility, but I consider the last two like a car payment. My main concern is about the loans that are close to forgiveness. Do I still have a chance for those to be forgiven? I'm sitting at 125/120.
