Anyone know where I can find where it says we aren't supposed to sign someone who lives in the same house as us? I have looked the policy over several times and can't find it. Thanks!
 
Hmm... I can't find it either. I wonder if they changed it. Considering the economy, I'm sure there are a lot more people living with other people these days. I would call HO in the morning.
 
Shelly, when you find out will you please let us know?
 
I looked & didn't see it either.
 
Someone posted in the chat box that it's right on the consultant agreement - they posted the link. This makes it so that a consultant doesn't sign their household members in able for them to earn incentives and such (when you need one more to earn a trip, it would be easy to sign your husband and qualify him yourself)
 
on the second page of the agreement is an asterick that states

"your recruiter may not be a member of your immediate household, for example, a spouse, parent or an adult child living at home."
 
One of my recruits lives in the apartment above my house... it's not the same address, it's apartment A and B. She wanted to sign so I called HO and cleared it before I signed her... and PC was delighted.... this was in July. Then a few weeks ago I got a call from HO saying they were "updating" their records and wondered why a recruit and I have the same address. I told the lady because she lives in the apartment above me and that I called to clear it before I did it, and to pretty much back off. I haven't been a fan of HO at the moment.
