Re: Filing a US tax return

If one is abroad more than a year(filed tax return with foreign address once), it is automatically extended to June 15th, don't need to file any form for that, is that right? Thanks.
Just write "Taxpayer Abroad" on the top of your Form 1040. It means you were abroad per the April 15 Filing deadline, and will qualify for the auto 2 month extension.

If you need more time beyond June 15, then file Form 4868 to extend it to October 15.
