Hi HMRC, I have a question on ‘home’ definition in SRT Second automatic UK test. If I live with my parent in oversea which is my parent’s owned property. Does it mean I get a oversea home as I can long stay there even the property is not owned by me !? Thanks!

Hi Qu61958 P,
A property doesnt need to be owend by you to count as a home.
HMRC definition is -  A home can be a building, or part of a building, a vehicle, vessel or structure of any kind which is used as a home by an individual.
It will be somewhere which an individual uses with a sufficient degree of permanence or stability to count as a home.  
If this applies to you, you have a home overseas.
Thank you.
