Thanks very much Dave.
What about the FinCen FBAR? Do I report values only from mid October, or through the entirety of 2022? When I look up instructions for FBAR versus Form 8939, the latter refers to "tax year", while FBAR refers to "calendar year", hence my confusion.
It is a relief that I don't have to file 8939 as I don't pass the higher threshold. I spent hours studying that question though, and I couldn't find anything other than the bona fide or the physical presence tests to determine whether I live inside or outside the US. For my heart to be confident, could you please refer me to a resource that states/explains that "if I were outside the US on Dec 31 and was living abroad" that this is enough to determine whether I live in the US or not, irrespective of the bona fide test or the 330 days outside the US test?
Thanks very much for your reply.
