@MonsieurMD1 , you are filing US tax return as a citizen of the USA, being taxed on your world income and for US purposes having a tax home in a country other than USA ( which country ? ).
As you quote , page 2 of the instructions for form 2555, does stipulate (a) once you elect to file use Foreign Earned Income exclusion,, that election remains valid for all future years; (b) to revoke this election you have to actively seek a change by attaching a note declaring your new choice to ameliorate double taxation ( foreign tax credit or deduction ).; (c) once you revoke your election to use Foreign Earned Income Exclusion, you cannot change back for the next five consecutive years and without IRS approval.
For your particular case , as per the statements in your note , your election to use FEIE, remains valid, even if for the year you had no foreign income.
However, if you actually had zero world income for the year , there may be questions as to how you survived that whole year. Just have your records to prove that you had no taxable income for the whole year of 2022.
Is there more one fo us can do for you ?
