Hello, my question is this. Does having your name on the utility bill prove residency. Here in the background to qualify this question. For the past five years I have lived with my parents and been their caretaker around the clock. Both of them passed within a year of one another. The will that we can find says the property and house are to be sold and split theee ways. My sister has moved in because her house burned recently. I mean moved in with me in mom and dad’s house. I realize I am going to have to move when we sell. My brother is fine with me remaining in the house until that time. My sister has decided to tell me she has a much right to be here as I do. If she refuses to leave, which I suspect she will, does the fact that I’ve been on the utility bill for a while and actually paid it since mom passed. Would that give me a “leg up” in so much as I am actually a known resident in the house?
