irESA support group to UC migration queries

So the dreaded migration is next week, and I'm slowly working through the to-do list but keep hitting roadblocks

I pay an informal, peppercorn rent to my sister who owns the property in which I live, but she does not. Again, no formal agreement, just a little money every month to her and I pay everything else for the house - council tax, bills, insurance etc and they're in my name (except insurance as that's under Executor, the home was my mother's and we're still working through probate etc but I have no legal ownership or claim on the property). Do I select Private Landlord as my housing situation because its my sister's house but she doesn't live there, so I don't technically live with family. I was contacted earlier by the UC number and asked but was placed on hold, the call was cut off and he never called back

Hi Kazcr

Yes as you pay some rent to your sister she is your private landlord.
