Household Size
Your household is determined by the number of people that live with you (including you) and with whom you share finances. For example, a roommate who pays some of the rent and utility bills but who purchases his own groceries and whose money is separate from yours would not be considered part of your household. A roommate, partner, or family member who pays for some or all of the rent and who provides you with money for personal expenses would be part of your household.
