MODERATORS
This sounds very facetious. It's obvious they mean they moved from their home country and are residing abroad, relative to their home country.
Thanks for pointing that out -- I was worried it would sound that way. I'll frame the question better next time.
Where I live, there are a lot of people that describe themselves as "residing abroad", which represent quite a weird mix of very different situations at all imaginable levels of legality. Sometimes I forget this is more straightforward elsewhere.
