Am I a Homeowner - or not!?

in Credit cards
I'm separated from the stbx (not legally - yet) and renting privately. Home is jointly owned and my name is still on the deeds, and mortgage.
I'm not sure what I put on a Credit Card application? My instincts are that putting homeowner would be better, but also might be bending the truth of the circumstances

If the property you own a stake in is no longer your home then yes, it would be bending the truth - what are the options that you have to choose from?1

The question is normally more explicit and states it in relation to the property you currently live in and so its not bending the truth but fraud1

If one has a stake in the ownership of a residential property, one is a home owner. If the question is are you a home owner, the answer is yes. If the question is do you rent or own the home where you typically reside (your prime residence), the answer is that you rent.
Whether anyone wants to argue the case, well of course they can, especially in today's society where there are several versions of the truth and most people lie routinely in any event.0
