    i cant see how that would be true, as long as you have your own bedroom that is available for you both. (they just want to make sure you wont apply for a council house due to overcrowding at your parents.

    Sorry to be so blunt, but what you have been told is nonsense.
    Of course you are able to stay at the house of your parents house.

    The sponsor and the applicant may to live in accommodation with multiple occupants,(ie Parents etc) . The applicant and sponsor should show that they will have exclusive access to a bedroom which is not used by anyone else. A bedroom is a room which is normally used as such and kitchens, bathrooms, and utility rooms do not qualify. A bedroom can be a family room or study which has been converted for exclusive access. Finally, a bedroom must be at least 50 square feet in dimension.
    If the sponsor/co-sponsor owns the property then deeds should be submitted. If the property is mortgaged then a letter from the mortgage provider which confirms ownership can be used.

    If the accommodation is privately rented, then the sponsor/co-sponsor should submit a letter from the landlord that confirms both the size of the property and his agreement that an additional occupant may take up residence there. A copy of the tenancy agreement should be included, and the tenancy agreement should have at least six months remaining until its expiry.

    If the accommodation is owned by a local authority or council estate, a landlord's confirmation should also be obtained, but if this cannot be obtained a report from an independent surveyor which confirms the size and suitability of the premises can be submitted instead.

    You also need to show that overcrowding will not take place.

    utter
    i've done it myself, not only is 3rd party accommondtion allowed, 'soon' 3rd party financial support could be allowed..

    as long as the property is not over crowded and they have permission from the owner, if they dont own it themself, you shouldnt have a problem..

    why would your case be border line ? becuase your living with your parents

    it wouldn't surprise me, some people who work in immigration have no idea and read thier answers from prepared notes
