If you surrendered your visa during 2018, then the FBAR and FATCA does not apply to you unless you had become a resident alien for tax purposes during at least 2018. When did you enter first under F-1? Did you convert your F-1 to H-1 or what ? You are a citizen/resident of which country ( for treaty reasons )?

I entered US as F1 in 2010. My F1 expired in 2018 and hence I moved back. No I did not convert to any other type of visa. I had income for initial part of 2018 for which I will file the W2. Citizen of India. Sorry for the late reply just saw this message.
