If I left the United States at the beginning of the year (2021) and no longer have any income from any U.S based source, but I do send funds, do I need to file tax 2022?

I used to live and work in the USA as a resident alien. I left the USA feb 2021. I no longer earn in or from the U.S, but I do send funds to my account there to occassionally make purchases for things online so I can pay in USD. Do I need to file taxes for the 2021- 2022 FY?

If you are still a resident alien, you have to file a U.S. tax return and report your worldwide income, whether or not you live in the United States.

See "Resident Aliens" in IRS Publication 519 for information about how to determine whether you are a resident alien. Download Publication 519 from the following link and see "Resident Aliens" beginning on page 4.
