Am I living with parents?

On insurance quotes and credit applications who am I?

Choices given are “home owner”, “living with parents”, “renting unfurnished” or “renting furnished”.

I currently live with my partner (not married but been living together for over two years) in his home which he owns (with mortgage). I contribute equally to the living costs but have no ties to the mortgage or property ownership.

I feel I could fit into “renting furnished” as live in a property which was mostly furnished and pay bills. I also feel also I could fall into the “living with parents” category as if I loose my job and can’t pay my bills my partner (I would hope) won’t kick me out...

Any ideas Mr. Lewis?

    I assume your partner is not one of your parents, so you are not "living with parents".  Bigger worries than insurance quotes and credit applications if that is not the case.
