Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Thanks for your message. Your response is good. Now I know what I need to do.

 

I now know that in need to base my net worth calculation on the date I filed my I-407. And I know now that I need to file along with the f8854 (2018) my f1040 from the year I filed the I-407. The 1040 will show how much income I had that year. 

 

Both, net worth calculation in the f8854 and the 1040 will be used to determine whether or not I am covered expatriate. So it makes sense that I need to file the 1040 from back then. I suspected that this is what I have to do. I just wanted to confirm it. You did that. Thank you.

 

Contacting the IRS directly and personally at an Embassy near my location is also a good idea. I will look into that. I did not know about this option.
