Can Two People on Parole and Probation Live Together?

My fiance is being released on parole and I am currently on probation. Can he come home to live with us and the kids?

Possibly, but only with explicit permission from both supervision officers. The standard rule is that two people under felony supervision are not supposed to have contact with each other during their terms of supervised release. That rule exists to reduce the risk of them influencing each other's compliance. Violating it without authorization is exactly the kind of thing that gets people violated on a technicality, so do not let him move in or even visit without going through the proper channels first.

The right move is for both of you to proactively approach your respective probation and parole officers and explain the situation fully. The key argument in your favor is family. He has been raising the children, the kids visit him in prison, and you have an established family unit. That context matters and it is worth presenting clearly and honestly to both officers. Some probation and parole offices will grant an exception for cohabitation when there is a legitimate family relationship and no history of domestic issues between the parties.

Get any approval in writing before anything changes about his living situation. A verbal okay from a PO is not protection if that officer rotates out or the situation gets reviewed later. Written authorization is what actually protects you both.
