Partner has no recourse - UC taking non dep charge? 

Hi   I cant see the definaiton of a non dep in the UC regs,
My customer ‘s husband has a nino but no recourse to public funds.
UC have assessed claim giving her the single persons allowance and taking his wages into account and applying tapers
I am happy with this bit :)

However, whe he stioopped working, the started taking a non dep charge for him instead? I think thats wrong but as I cant find the definition of a mnon dep in there regs, i cant say its definately wronng. In HB, a partner is specifically excluded as being a non dep

Can someone confirm whether UC can take a non dpe charge for a partner with no recpurse when not working?
Thanks

I think Schedule 4 Paragraph 9 (2)(b) is what you’re after?
