Mostly Independent
Your loved one may not require home care or assisted living services at this time. However, continue to monitor their condition for changes and consider occasional in-home care services for help as needed.
Remember, this assessment is not a substitute for professional advice.
Share a few details and we will match you to trusted home care in your area:
I take care of my mom through a health care plan. She's blind and she is with grilling health care I need for her to be at my home. I have a daughter and need to be home so I really need my mom at my place. Can I get he put on my apartment lease
No, I wouldn't recommend you have your Mom placed on your Lease. I would suggest that you let your landlord know that your Mom plans on living with you. If the landlord suggests to add your Mom to your Lease, make sure she isn't liable for the rent.
Hopefully your apartment has 2 bedrooms. If not, and it's just an one bedroom apartment there might be a zoning issues where 3 people cannot share one bedroom.
You also have a daughter liuving there? An apartment is going to become quite difficult with all of you there. How does your daughter feel about this? Is your apartment a safe place for Mom? Elder proofed? How old is your Mom? Does SHE want to live there? How old is she?
Your question isn't completely clear (maybe some strange autocorrects in there?).
It sounds like your mom's funds are paying you to take care of her and that you do not have a job outside the home. Are you looking for your mom to be on the lease so that she is responsible for the rent? If so, and her funds permit, then it's really a question for your landlord. The landlord would want some proof of mom's income if she's going to be a leaseholder. If all that's in order, I don't know why the landlord would care (it gives him/her an additional person to hold responsible), but it is a change in the terms of the lease, so s/he isn't obligated to.
If your mom is spending down for future Medicaid coverage, then consult with an attorney before doing anything that affects your mom's finances.
Personally, I don't see that it's any of my business how big your apartment is or how crowded it may become or if it's elderly proof....that's between you and your mother. Obviously you feel the apartment suits your needs - at least for the time being. So I will answer the actual question that you proposed. It is true that if you add your mother's name on your lease, she will be just as liable for the rent as you. However, most rental agencies will allow you to add her to the lease as a dependant not a co-obligor. Actually most rental companies require you to inform them of any new occupants or be in default of your lease. When you contact them make sure to specify that you want her added to your lease as a dependant. If you get some inexperienced person at your rental office who doesn't quite know what they're doing and says you cannot do this.....go up the chain of command until you reach someone who does. I worked in property management for years and I have worked in the legal field for nearly 30 years so trust me...it can be done. Good luck and God bless.
