I am not able to invite a family member to home in HomeKit. We are in a same family and have latest IOS version installed. I am not able to see the invite people option in the home settings in HomeKit.

Hi there shruti105,
If you are having issues sending an invite to share control of your home, next follow these recommendations from Share control of your home (that you've already looked over) since they can help resolve what's happening:
If you can't share control of a home
* To invite people to control your home while you're away and edit permissions for them, you need to set up a home hub. If you don't have a home hub set up, you can only invite people when you're home and connected to your home Wi-Fi network. Matter-enabled accessories require a home hub, such as Apple TV 4K or HomePod mini.
* If Home has been upgraded to the new Home architecture, you must set up a home hub to share control of your home.
* You and the people you invite need the latest version of iOS, iPadOS, or macOS.
* Make sure that you and the people you invite are signed in to iCloud on iPhone, iPad, or Mac. In iCloud settings, turn on Home.
* Make sure that you and the people you invite haven't blocked each other's phone number or Apple ID. Learn how to manage blocked phone numbers, contacts, and emails on iPhone or iPad and how to manage blocked callers on Mac.
If this continues after following that, let us know if this happens with multiple devices that you use with the Home app so that we can narrow this issue down more.
Cheers!
