    It looks like this is fixed in today's patch.

    -------------------------


    • Splitting the Household and moving out through the Phone is now possible.

    Fixed in Patch 1.110.311/2.03


    Please create a new thread if you're still experiencing this issues

    The notes only reference the other thread but I tested this both through Manage Household and the phone and it's working fine.

@gertie47 The easiest is probably to create a dummy household in CAS, the move the Sim to that household and delete the Sim you don't want.

@crinrict  what if you do not want to delete sims and just want to move more than one. even in game when you use the phone to split household it will only let you do one at a time its a pain

      both threads are very much like each other, I can not tell which one I am ment to be in, but I have the same issue as everyone in both threads, I can not split / transfer my sim from one household, I can not do this from the neighbourhood screen and if I try to split them while in game play from the phone it will only let me move one sim at a time, as I also get the transfer not allowed message.

    Move one Sim to your new property. Then invite over whoever you want to join your household. Click on relationships and ask them to move in. It will then give you the option to transfer Sims from your previous household to your new one. And you can choose more than one.

      Thank god some new games are coming out soon. I am so sick of these EA PEOPLE if you can call them that creating one bug after another. At this point the entire game is an ongoing workaround. Exhausting. Not what people would normally call fun.

    I can't even do one at a time. I'm used to work arounds and things being a pain in this game. I'd just do one at a time if I could but it doesn't allow me to transfer anyone.
