    First time filing Taxes - Working abroad
    I thought I didn't have to do taxes because I've been living and working in china since march 2012.

    But I heard on the radio as a US citizen I have to fill out something no matter where I live.

    I went on the IRS and I see I can fill out forms

    A 2555 right?
    Is that the only thing I fill out?

    I earned about 15,000 USD April 2012-april 2013. I am not sure, I was paid cash and I am not the most organized person to keep track.

    Not sure what to do at this point.

    You need to file Forms 1040 and 2555. You will owe zero taxes.
