As long as you file the taxes, you will be fine, they do not need to be paid off.

This is something I may have a problem with. Living in Brazil so long and being self-employed I had a very low income. When I started looking into the I-864 I see I need to have at least the last 3 years filed and send in the last year. I have none of these. I will file the I-2555 for the tax exclusion but I found out I still owe self-employment tax. (go figure) So I am scrambling to file the last 3 years but don't have the money right now to pay the tax (that's gonna cost me) but will at least file. I am working making enough money to sponsor and will have a joint sponsor just incase. As for domicile I think I will be ok there.

I also found out I owe some back taxes from 12 years ago.

Thank you for the reply.

If you made less than $90,000 for each of the last three years while legally residing abroad, then you would qualify for the Foreign Earned Income Ceedit and owe nothing in US taxes.

The requirement to file a tax return does not necessarily means you owe US taxes.
