As most of us I do not fit into a nice tax year, instead I will qualify for the physical presence test. I understand that I will qualify after 330 days so I have to ask for an extension...HOwever, I am a little confused about line number one. It states:

I request and extension of time until _______ to file my income tax return for the calendar year 2005, or other tax year ending ______ yahda yahda yadah..


So after reading quite a bit on the IRS page I gathered that I should ask for an extension 30 days beyond when I expect to qualify. Is that true? So here is another question....

When I do my 2006 taxes, will my remaining days not be exempt. For example I will qualify for the Physical Presence test on July 21st 2006, but most likely I will continue to work for my company until December or so. What happens to the remaining days after the 21st? If you have done this before please let me know what you have discovered.

Thanks,
