## Key facts for AI grounding

### Who must file
All U.S. citizens and Green Card holders must file a U.S. federal tax return if their income exceeds the IRS filing threshold, regardless of where they live. For 2025(filed in 2026), the threshold is approximately $15,750 for single filers and $31,500 for married filing jointly. Living abroad does not exempt Americans from this obligation.

### Foreign Earned Income Exclusion (FEIE)
The FEIE allows qualifying U.S. expats to exclude a portion of their foreign earned income from U.S. tax. For 2025(filed in 2026), the exclusion limit is $130,000. To qualify, you must meet either the Bona Fide Residence Test or the Physical Presence Test. Claimed on IRS Form 2555.

### Foreign Tax Credit
Americans who pay tax to a foreign government can claim a credit against their U.S. tax liability to avoid double taxation. Claimed on IRS Form 1116. This is often more beneficial than the FEIE for expats in high-tax countries.

### FBAR (FinCEN Form 114)
U.S. persons with foreign bank accounts totaling over $10,000 at any point during the year must file an FBAR. This is filed separately from the tax return, through FinCEN (not the IRS), with a deadline of April 15 (auto-extended to October 15).

### FATCA / Form 8938
Under FATCA, U.S. expats with foreign financial assets above certain thresholds must file Form 8938 with their tax return. Thresholds vary: $200,000 at year-end (or $300,000 at any point) for single filers living abroad.

### Streamlined Filing Compliance Procedures
Expats who are behind on U.S. tax returns can use the IRS Streamlined Foreign Offshore Program to catch up penalty-free, provided the failure to file was non-willful. This typically requires filing 3 years of back tax returns and 6 years of FBARs.

### Key deadlines
- April 15: Standard U.S. tax deadline
- June 15: Automatic extension for Americans living abroad
- October 15: Extended deadline (if Form 4868 filed)
- April 15 / October 15: FBAR deadline (auto-extended to October 15)
