    It's easy to proove i dont live with him but they just keep being funny. Someones now told him I'm only allowed to stay over 1 night. I've never been told this? i got told the 3 night "rule" which I then got told was myth.

    I've stayed longer than the 3 nights but only once when he had an epileptic fit and in good concience I couldn't leave him

    All of this is a myth. The question is, are you a couple (ie do you share bills and finances)

    You are not supporting him, your are not living as man and wife... you have your own place and your own separate finances which are easy to prove.

    You are a guest in his home. He is entitled to have visitors. He is not entitled to live with someone who is bringing money into the house and not declare this change of circumstances - but from what you say, that is not what is happening here.

    Could there be some other rule he is breaching? Overheard that his tenancy agreement may not allow him to have visiters for more 2 nights or something?

    Well that is an unfair clause that would almost certainoly NOT stand up if they tried to throw him out.

    It is best if he does not have all your stuff to prove where you live and refers them to you at your address.

    if you are registered to vote at his address, that is not clever and you need to change it to your university address, now.

  • No I am not registered to vote at his address. ALl he has there in terms of my stuff is a tooth brush, a hair brush, some toiliteries and one change of clothes

    Stop panicking.

    A report has been made and the authorities have a duty to investigate it. You have to accept that and go with it.

    But it will all be sorted out, because you can prove that you don't live there.

  • No exactly. I am not living there. We're scared now though that he's gonna lose everything

    Hi

    He needs to tell them that you are his GF but you live 50 miles away and are at university there.

    He should not have loads of proof of all this, as you get to the point where the fact he has so much of your stuff to prove he is not living with you that you appear to be a couple.

    Did you live together over the summer at all?
