Question
A married person staying at their parents' home, do they need to make a separate Eruv Tavshilin?
Answer
The guest has several options: 1. They can make their own Eruv Tavshilin before the holiday but should not recite the blessing. 2. The host can include them in the Eruv Tavshilin through a neighbor [meaning the neighbor lifts the Eruv a tefach]. 3. The guest can lift the host's Eruv themselves if they arrive at the house before the holiday begins (provided the host has not yet made the Eruv) and become a partner in it, after which the host will recite the Eruv text over the food.

In Mishnah Berurah, section 56, it is written that a person's household follows him in Eruv Tavshilin, and in Biur Halacha, under the heading "מי", there is a discussion about whether a maid needs to do it separately since it can be done through her, or if she follows the master of the house since she eats from his food and dishes. See Azmera Leshimcha, issue 205.
