How should Rent / Rooms be split in a 3 bedroom house with 1 couple and 1 single?

If a Couple and a Single are moving into a 3 Bedroom, 2 Bathroom House, how should the Rent / Rooms be split?
Is it reasonable for the couple to pay 2/3 of the Rent and take 2/3 Bedrooms? If the couple gets 1 Bedroom, and the Single gets 1 Bedroom, should the Rent be split in Half?

This fall I’ll more than likely get a starting teaching position in the range of $30-35,000. I want some opinions on what kind of apartment rent range I should be looking for?

What amount of rent should I get back in taxes?

I am a college student and have been paying rent for the last four years. The tax return for this year has me getting less rent back than last year even though I paid more rent this year. How is this possible? I have all the Certificates of Rent paid and I see that they are all multiplied by 19% to come up with a number. Should I not get that much rent back? Seems a bit strange. Can someone help me out?

I’m moving to a new city in 2 weeks, and my long-distance boyfriend is staying with me for the first month or so to help me move in, get a car etc. He will only be there for short overnight visits after that. Should I mention this to the landlord?
Should my boyfriend be present at the apartment inspection and lease-signing? Or should he be away to avoid questions? I think I may have mentioned this possibility to the landlord before, but I don’t remember.

Should I Forge Our Apartment Lease To Get The Gas Turned Back On?

The lease holder of our apartment hasn’t paid the gas bill, and the gas has been shut off, which means no hot water, heat or stove. She does not live here anymore, nor is she in the area. The gas company won’t let us put a new gas bill in another name without lease in our names. The landlord is not very accessible and is on an extended vacation so we have no way to get a new lease anytime soon. I’m tired of taking cold showers.
