I want to have visitors staying, but what makes the difference between a visitor and a dweller. For instance they get their mail sent here. If they become a dweller do they get ownership rights? This is confusing me. If anyone can advise Id be very grateful. thanks

If they do not pay half of the monthly costs(it can be less than half if agreed upon in writing) then they have no rights, It also depends where you live, in some states they have no rights unless they are on the lease or mortgage as a tenant.

Did you sign a bill of sale or contract giving them ownership in exchange for monetary compensation ?
If so then they have ownership rights.
Visitor and dweller may be the same but do NOT come with any property rights, that comes from signed, notarized documents.
If they are paying you rent, then they have tenant rights.
If they are not giving you $$ nor have bought a share in your property, then they have no rights other than those resulting from your courtesy. (at least in the USA, where are you ?)

If they are not on the lease or mortgage, they do not have ownership rights (could not use the home as collateral for a loan or make decisions concerning the home). If they receive their mail there, they technically are a resident (you cannot force them out without written notice). If they reside there, they should be responsible for half the living expenses. If they are not, then you would have to give the 7 days written notice to evacuate, but if they do pay half, then it's 30 days notice. If their name is on a lease and they leave, you can take them to court of they choose not to be responsible for half the rent. One's name cannot be removed from a lease legally, under most circumstances. Special circumstances would include death, injury, deployment (military). Divorce or breakups do not qualify as special circumstances.

Does this person pay you rent? Do they contribute towards the mortgage... and is their name on the deeds? If they pay rent, do they have a rent book/contract with you?
If not then they don't have ownership rights... but if you're talking about someone who has had a relationship with you.. now that may be different

Nope. Does she have a contract?
