SPCCC query

Hi there. I have been advising a friend of mine to claim the SPCCC credit. She is divorced, separately assessed, and she is the principal care giver to the (qualifying) child.

She is self employed but when she asked her accountant about it he told her she doesn't qualify because she shares a house with a friend of her brother and as such he is contributing to the bills???

I know it says you can't cohabit but it clarifies that that means living with you partner.

I am at a loss to understand her accountant's logic. Am I missing something?

Thanks
