    Hi @hello20. When the two of you joined claims, your partner was on UC before-hand wasn't she? 
    Was she already handing in fit notes or has she been assessed under UC at all?

    If she's unable to work then she will need to send in fit notes. If you're not happy with your work coach then i'd advise requesting a different one, you're well within your rights to do this.
