emilysDid you go to home? or Did you went to home?
Which one is correct and why?

Did you go to home? is correct because only one tense marker (did) is needed.

emilysHow do I make money? or How I make money?

The former is correct because do is needed to form a question. The latter is a noun clause, which is a type of dependent clause: How I make money is none of your affair. (The subject of the sentence is how I make money.)

By the way, never use a space before a question mark.

'did go' is the full verb phrase. Only the first verb in a verb phrase changes to show tense, so it's 'did go', not 'did went'.
