What is Form 2350?

Form 2350 is designed for U.S. citizens and resident aliens living outside the United States. This form allows them to request an extension for filing their tax returns, especially if they believe they will qualify for the Foreign Earned Income Exclusion (FEIE). The FEIE can significantly reduce or even eliminate taxes on income earned while abroad. By submitting Form 2350, individuals gain an additional 30 days to collect the necessary information and fulfill the criteria for the FEIE, helping them maximize potential tax savings.

Frequently asked questions

  • What is the difference between Form 4868 and Form 2350?

    Form 4868 is a general extension form that allows most taxpayers to request an automatic extension until October 15. It does not require any special conditions. In contrast, Form 2350 is specifically for U.S. citizens and resident aliens living abroad who need additional time to fulfill the requirements for the Foreign Earned Income Exclusion. Unlike Form 4868, Form 2350 does not extend the time to pay taxes, and if taxes are owed, interest and penalties may apply if not paid by the regular due date.
