Also note that the corrections for the accleration (Special Relativity) would only be needed during it's acceleration (both +, -) with respect to the control clock on Earth.

The corrections for being in a different gravitational-well compared to Earth (General Relativity) would be ongoing.
Note:This value would also be changing during any change in distance with respect to the control clock on Earth.
