“Bona fide residence test” – this is established by having a home there or illustrating that you have settled there with some sort of permanence:
- bank acct
- phone bill
- cell phone bills
- utility bill if that’s in your name
“Physical Presence Test” – were you physically in a foreign country for 330 days in a consecutive 12 month period
So you still fill in your 1040 form (typical tax filing form) found here: http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f1040.pdf
but you also attach the 2555-EZ form found here: http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f2555ez.pdf

I have talked to many people here about they agencies they went through and I feel like I was really well prepared in terms of what to expect. I really appreciate all of your help in answering my questions and helping me to navigate the extensive paperwork! Here's to a great year in South Korea !!! ”
