1 is fine; 2 would be fine if you complete the thought -- before what?
5 is the best; 3 is OK; 4 (again) would be fine if you complete the thought -- after what?
Each could be OK, depending on what you mean and if you complete the thought (9).
~ 6 and 7 seem to be referring to the future: Three days from now, I will meet Tom.
~ 8 is OK depending on what the sentence before says, so that the question would be answered -- later than what?
~ 9 needs to be completed -- after what?
