Keeping Up The Home The cost of keeping up the home includes the mortgage, property taxes, rent, repairs, insurance, utilities, and food eaten at home. The costs of keeping up the home do not include personal costs such as clothes, education, entertainment, and so on. They also do not include permanent improvements, such as a new water heater. (But costs of keeping up the home would include the cost of repairing the water heater.) Public assistance funds you receive and spend on keeping up the home do not count as funds you spent for this purpose. They count as funds spent keeping up the home by someone other than you. However, alimony or child support money that you receive and spend for keeping up the home does count as an expenditure of your funds.
