Careful, even a green card status is difficult to throw off. Funny that you could lose your green card by not meeting the residency test, but that doesn't negate your USA taxation obligations on worldwide income. Not even sure why they think that makes sense.

Really? Do you have any source for that? (not arguing - genuinely interested. That's precisely how I lost my greencard)

Its complicated. If you don't have lots of assets, you are probably ok.

Wow, I had no idea, at all. Luckily my most valuable asset when I expatriated was a laptop, so I'm probably safe from capital gains.
