Does Student's Dependant period count for IRL as a Global Talent's Dependant?

[Aurum]

Hello.
I was on a dependant visa for 3 years with my husband who was on a student visa. After that, 4 and a half years ago, I switched it into a Dependant visa with my (the same) husband who had received a Global Talent visa 6 months earlier.

Now my husband is eligible for IRL (5 continuous years). But my period on my "Dependant on Global talent" is just 4.5 years.

In that case, will the time spent on my "Dependant on a student" visa count towards my ILR as a Dependant of Global talent?

Is there any reference to Immigration rules that provide information on this ?

Please suggest.
Thanks

The rules for the work related routes (like GTV route) do NOT care about the immigration route of the dependant. They just need you to have been the main applicant's dependant partner for a total of 5 years. Hence, any time spent under any dependant route (including the family route) counts.

See my advice and ILR success in a similar case here: https://www.immigrationboards.com/viewt ... 2#p2166414

Thank you very much! This is very reassuring.
