Yes he can he has bills and a letter his mum has wrote stating the time he stayed there and that he payed the agreed rent monthly

My landlord is also writing a letter as she knew my circumstances and was extremely supportive my neighbour has also confirmed that I stayed here alone up until the start of the month when informed them that he was moving on the next day

It's honestly so legit

After hearing people's advice and comments I think the fact we have a joint bank account together (he also has his own bank accounts this was just to help us with a broker - or so I thought) and because we are now in a firm relationship and he did come and see the children everyday is what I'm really going to struggle to prove that it was not to fraud the system but because I was genuinely not able to let someone live with me at that time because financially he could not support us and also because emotionally I could not Handel living with someone who hurt me a great deal and I had list so much trust for. Since his daughter was born last summer I cannot describe the change in him and his actions. He has worked so hard to show and prove to me that it was a
Mistake and would never happen again -
But as I'm hearing they will not care about any of that they will only care about what they believe to be true which is why I'm struggling so hard to stay strong because I could not bare the possibility of the outcome

Roger black thanks lots for your reply. I have a child from a previous relationship back in 2009 but he has always been brought up by my partner.
He did stay with his parents the whole time and yea did stay over during the week twice a week. He worked taxis at the weekend to be able to pay rent to stay at his mum and dads plus repayment of his debt! The only thing we had together was a bank account t which he joined to my account in January this year as we thought because I didn't have a year in books for my self employment that a broker might think better of us having a joint account to show some kind of a link. Could this have flagged up?

On every single thread like this we get the magic myth "twice a week".

There is no twice a week rule, its rubbish, whether you live together as man and wife is based on a wide range of circumstances and not whether you bunk up two nights a week.

I am happily married and we have often gone weeks or longer without shareing a bed or on good contracts we got one or one and a bit night(s) together but that didnt mean that we were single.

The letter from his parents wont carry much weight, most parents would supply this if their kids asked for it.

Make sure you have a copy of your phone bill for when you phoned the council.

Just to clarify a couple of points which make me raise my eyebrows about all of this:

You say in the OP that your relationship began again in March 2012 but your OH stayed at his parents' house until May 2014, although he stayed with you twice a week. Is that right?

Your mortgage application was rejected in April 2014, so OH moved in a week later. You say you applied under 'our own address'. At the time of the application, there was no 'our' address as he didn't live with you - did he not apply using his own correct address?

Hey it was ment to say 'our own addresses' not 'address'

And our relationship broke down in feb 2012 our daughter being born august 2012 we did not start an couple relationship again until around about November 2013 that's when he started staying over
