Yes it is true, HO are correct. Your assumption is wrong.Is it true that Tier 2 Partner visa & spouse visa are different and cannot be counted towards the 5 yrs ILR route?

HO is correct. You need 5 years on FLR M spouse visa before you can apply for ILR on form Set M. Time spent on tier 2 partner visa doesn't count for 5 years residence for Set M ILR as it is a different visa category and rules.

The rules for PBS Dependents of ILR Long Residence applicants changed almost 5 years ago in April 2014. By you changing visa category in 2016, your clock was reset to zero and a new 5 year route to ILR (2 x 2.5 year visas). See link below for the rules and changes.
