I don't see any reason why you'd need to sign a lease and presumably pay rent just because you are there on some overnights. Are you there 24-7 even when you're "off duty"?

Are you an employee or a family member?

I would say No if you are an employee. Whether you are working shifts on a live in, your an employee. I would not allow myself to be put on a lease because then u could be held responsible for rent if the client falls behind on payments. Your credit would be effected.

If a family member, same thing. If you don't live there and leave to return home than I see no reason for you to be on the lease. Again, u could be held liable for any outstanding rent.

If an employee I would check with the labor board to question this or even the Housing board. Are you private or with an agency. Either way, I would say, do not allow whoever to put you on the lease.

Is this a 55 and up Community? If so, there must be some provision in their contract for Caregiver's.

No. There’s no reason to be on the lease because you don’t live there. You don’t qualify as a tenant.
