Taxation in Puerto Rico Taxation in Puerto Rico takes the form of both Federal and Commonwealth taxes. Puerto Rico has independent tax-levying authority by provisions of 48 U.S.C. § 734 of the United States code.
Puerto Rican citizenship In 1952, upon U.S. Congress approving the Constitution of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, also reaffirmed that Puerto Rican citizenship continued in full force. This was further reaffirmed in 2006 while the U.S. Senate probed into the President's Task Force on Puerto Rico's status.[22] In 1953, U.S Ambassador Henry Cabot Lodge Jr., in a memorandum sent to the United Nations, recognized that "the people of Puerto Rico continue to be citizens of the United States as well as of Puerto Rico."[5]
