You need 5 years residence from date of marriage if you did not have a residence card before marriage.

Without 5 uears residence as a non EU spouse, you don't qualify for PR.

You don't state what your immigration status was before you got married.

Just like CR001 said you can only count the time without a residence card if you had been married as the rights derived are automatic, however, you had no automatic right-to-reside as an unmarried partner without having been issued an EEA family permit or residence card.

You can only apply 5 years from date of your marriage. You will only qualify for PR in 08/2019, not any sooner.
