Your client is a covered expatriate based on the limited info you provided if she is a long-term resident.

Especially since you don't seem to be familiar with the rules, in the event she is a long-term resident, it would be advisable that you refer your client to a specialist, preferably a tax attorney, because this is a complex and high risk area; the exposure for not doing it right could be substantial.

For how many calendar years (or a part thereof) has she been a green card holder?
