I first qualified for Gold in December of 2013 (have been Plat ever since), but my question is when do they start the "years elite". Is is the calendar year of status or from the exact date you first made status?

I will have 5 years of elite status in the program if you just look at it in the years I've qualified (2013,14,15,16,17) and potentially 18, but based on my dashboard it would imply I would be SOL at the transition, with only 4 years "elite". When I called SPG they weren't able to clarify.
What did they actually say? That they didn't know or ?????
