Occupier Consent Form- Gifted Deposit

Hello,
I have got me legal report from my solicitor for the house we are buying. In the report it states that 'it is a requirement that as (my mum) will be in occupation of the property at completion she needs to sign a occupier consent form.' My mum provided a gifted deposit but she wont be living in the house which was confirmed in the mortgage. is this correct or a mistake? Will ask my solicitor but want to see if other people had this too.
Thanks

It's a mistake. Just tell your solicitor she isn't going to be an occupier.0

Well, if she is not going to be occupying the property at any stage it sounds like a mistake.
Is your mother selling the property to you? That could be where the confusion arises, and it's possible that the mortgage lender has a policy around this to safeguard themselves if the vacant possession doesn't actually occur given the familial link between you and her.0 -
Thanks all- thought it was a mistake.0
