Explanation:

Spousal equivalent is living with someone under the same roof in on a long term sexual relationship. They don't necessarily have to be married. More of a domestic partnership. AICPA regards people in such arrangements as covered member as they come under the attest engagement team. I. e. individuals who are capable of influencing an engagement team under auditing rules.
