Form 2555 Questions

My brother worked in Afghanistan in 2014, but did not work for 330 days... does this mean that he should NOT even fill out the Form 2555

OR does he fill out the 2555 and let the form automatically prorate the income exclusions for the 180 days he was over there?

I am a little confused about this , because i hear people saying that the 330 rule is to get the full income exemption... not necessarily to be allowed to fill out the form.


Thanks in advance for any help
