Thought it was 10 hours to be put on special tracking.

If your partner is eating into your PF time, keep a record of that dates, times, down to the minute. You'd want to get special tracking because of that. Even if you're progressing OK, still track it in case you need it later.

If you are in special tracking, you would know. You would have had a meeting with the manager of flight training, and signed a document laying out what the company is agreeing to do for you, and what you need to do to fulfill your end of the deal.
