Did you pay more than half the cost to keep up your home in 2019?

"Your home" can also refer to a dwelling you rent.  You don't have to own the home.

 

 As a renter, you still pay rent, utilities, etc. which are costs of 'keeping up a home'.

 

If you paid more than half of these costs, you could qualify as Head of Household.
