This is my client's question: I'm currently in Iraq, I would meet the 330 days out of the country but needed to go back to the states to defend myself in court. The court adjourned twice, before awarding in my favor. However; it took 7 weeks. The only reason for returning to the states was the court case.

I left for Iraq December 20th, 2017 and I'm scheduled to return to the US November 30th.

Would the prorated portion work?

An Expat Tax Pro said it could be, I don't agree as the test isn't met. What am I missing?
