I am moving from Florida to London in the spring of 2023, and I am a dual citizen. My taxes are usually pretty straightforward, as I am 54 years old, disabled, just living on SSDI and child support for my 12-year-old child, who will be the only person moving with me. I don’t have any savings or assets. I usually only file my non-mandatory taxes so that I can get my Earned Income Child Support return, and I usually work a very little part time job throughout the year to qualify for that. I do also do my tax return for the FAFSA for my college-age daughter, who is still technically a dependent.
A) How will this move affect my US taxes?
B) My 20-year-old would still be a dependent; she has one more year of school. But would that make her an international student for her last year at Berklee? Do I have a choice to not claim her as a dependent if that becomes necessary for her school, since she could primarily still live in the US?
C) Also, pre-pandemic I earned about $8,000 in wages and got an EITC of around $7,000. During 2020 and 2021, I earned much less but was able to input my pre-pandemic wages, so I still got a similar EITC. In 2022, I have had surgery and health problems and have only earned about $299. How will this affect my EITC, and how much would I have to earn to get the full EITC amount possible refunded?
Thank you so much!!
