No, by granting them permission to live there, they cannot claim any sort of adverse possession. As always, it is a good idea to get these agreements in writing and documented.

How do you stake a claim to a gold mine?
If it is someone else's land you cannot claim it and there is pretty much no land left that no one owns. However if you do discover gold and it is not owned by a person and determining on how long you've been there you can check into squatters rights. Though if it is on your land you own the gold and no one can touch it but you. But if no one owns the land not Evan the government owns it and that's where squatters rights come in, this only applies to so many states though, but this is very unlikely.

Can you claim squatters rights in the house where you live when ex wants to throw you out?
Squatters rights??? Nice try. If they do not have any interest in the home (like being on title, or lease if you are renting from someone), they must leave your home. You may want to check the related website or with the police. If they are tenants and have been paying rent, then you have to follow an eviction process.
