Thanks again.
Bookings won't be merged but the use of your voucher across both bookings is allowed/noted.

A separate return booking would a starting location of the US. TFCs will be calculated on that basis. If you want one booking and to pay the GIB level of TFCs for the whole trip, then you may need to wait until both directions are in date range/have availability, and book in one go.
