Can a husband and wife have separate primary residences?
Hello there! I’d love some help on a tricky question. Can my husband and I legally have two separate primary residences? I would like to buy my first home as my primary residence (and live there the required %time), but my husband is required to live in another property as his primary residence as part of an OMI he initiated a year ago. Can I purchase a home on my own as my own primary residence if my husband lives elsewhere? Thanks in advance for your help!
