Does anyone know if someone can claim the Bona Fide Resident test if they live in the foreign country but their family stays in the USA?
Taxpayer was in Angola working in the oil industry. His family stayed in the States. (gee I wonder why). He does not meet the physical presence test. But, can he be a bonafide resident if he does not move his family there? He is required by the company to live there. Anyone have experience with this?
We are seeing a lot more folks coming in with foreign income now. I guess they're going anywhere they can find work.
Thanks.
