Nice try but he did in fact use the property. Unless we follow up on our elected officials to check they have actually slept in the bed of the room they are claiming for then living at the address provided is all the proof they can provided.
Besides, He still had to pay rent. Which he could claim for anyway. So he didn't gain anything by doing it is way around. The only problem is the technicality that he said his partner was his landlord and did not disclose fully the nature of the relationship. However that did not allow him to claim more than he was entitled for, he in fact claimed less anyway.
