Paid for half my expenses half the year

I was on SSI for half of the year, but was working for half the year paying my rent with taxable income. Do I qualify as "supporting myself" for the year?

Deductions & credits

Yes, if you didn't receive any support from any other sources.  You work and your Supplemental Security Income (SSI) is considered support from your own sources.
