2555-EZ citizen/national question
« on: February 01, 2013, 10:36:50 AM »
I'm probably overthinking this, but on the 2555-EZ form it asks of what country you are a citizen/national. For 2011 I put USA and UK. I'm assuming that since I was still a US citizen in 2012, I should put the same thing, but I am not a US citizen now, so the present tense part is making me feel uncertain. Should I put USA and UK, or just UK?

I maybe way off here, but I thought you would file your final tax forms, (8854 etc) and complete all your IRS tax affairs up to the date you renounced. The day after you're no longer an American. As a consequence a foreign national wouldn't file a 2555(ez). There maybe variations for the annual filing of a 1040NR if you have stateside income.

I was an American for all of 2012, I only renounced in January 2013.
