select uniqueID
     , clientID
     , status
     , Xmonth
     , Xyear
  from yourtable ZZ
 where Xyear*100+Xmonth =
       ( select min(Xyear*100+Xmonth)
           from yourtable ZZ
          where clientID = ZZ.clientID )

i used column names Xyear and Xmonth because year and month are reserved
words

you may need [year] and [month] in Access
