People living at home with advanced cancer wish to maintain and preserve domestic life, but they experience several barriers in their everyday occupations and thereby occupational performance. There is little knowledge of these barriers experienced by people living alone versus people living with someone. To investigate differences in self-perceived occupational performance and the prioritisation of getting self-reported problematic everyday occupations solved among people with advanced cancer, taking living status into consideration. A cross-sectional study using baseline data from an RCT including 174 participants with advanced cancer living at home. Difficulty and priorisation of everyday occupations were assessed using the Individually Prioritised Problem Assessment (IPPA). In total, 731 problematic everyday occupations were reported, mainly related to the categories of housework, self-care and leisure. Overall, no statistically significant difference in self-reported occupational performance was found. However, people living alone perceived statistically significantly more frequently  showering/bathing  and  doing laundry  as difficult and therefore important to address. In contrast, people living with someone prioritised  social interaction  and  home maintenance  statistically significantly more frequently.
