Hello!
I am currently spending most our time in Canada while my husband completes a temporary job assignment. I have a valid re-entry permit, am employed in the US, keep a US mailing address, cell phone, credit cards, vehicle, still travel to US regularly, etc...
However, I just realized our cross border accountant, although filing regular 1040 (as residents), he used our canadian address in our US taxes (filed jointly).... we also filed for foreign tax credit since we paid taxes in Canada...Is this a huge issue?? do I need to submit an amendment with our US mailing address instead? is that possible? and if not, am I screwed??
I am freaking out about it since I have been so careful with all my ties in the US.... we intend to return back to the US permanently next year. I will then apply for naturalization 2.5 years from then, which is when I think this would be an issue... :/
