I lived in New Zealand on a work visa for 2 months of 2018 the rest of the time I lived in California. How do I claim that on the form when they ask where I lived?

Lived and worked in California January thru October. Then lived and worked in New Zealand November and December. Is there somewhere where I note that?

Did you go back to CA after working in New Zealand?

So this is a temporary absence, correct?

Yes

If this is a temporary absence and you are returning to California, you do not need to note that you are working in New Zealand.
