Deductions & credits

I have a situation where I am unsure if we qualify for the reduced maximum exclusion.  

 

My wife accepted a new job on February 1, 2020.  We also signed for a new home on February 20, 2020 that is 90 miles away from her new job.  Her old job was around 15 miles away.  We only lived in the new home for one year and three months.  We finally decided on relocating closer to her new job that is around 20 miles away.  Given that she accepted her job before I moved in to our new home does that disqualify us from the reduced maximum exclusion?  Does it matter if she accepted her new job before we moved in?
