Do IR hours count as P1?

[Bearcat F8F]

Thanks, so just to be 100% clear here. For purposes of obtaining 100 hours PIC in order to start the CPL, all of those hours need to be gained by means of hour building?

I also have 17 solo hours from my PPL training which I assume count towards the 100 required hours. Leaving me with at least 83 hours to get by hour building. Correct?

Thanks again for the help.
