Yes. Assuming you were working in the United States (US) and not in Puerto Rico (PR), Form 480.6C is intended for non-residents of Puerto Rico. Since this was for services you performed you should enter the income as self employment using Schedule C. You do not need to enter the document itself.
Follow the steps here to enter your income without using the Form 480.6C.
- Open your TurboTax return > Search (upper right) > Type schedule c > Press enter > Click the Jump to link.
- Select to Edit beside your business (or add) > Select Income > Select Other self-employed income, includes 1099-K and cash...
- Enter the total proceeds from your Form 480.6C
- Continue to complete your self employment income and expenses
You must file a tax return for Puerto Rico since you are not a bona fide resident for 2022 (which you have already done), along with a US tax return. The foreign tax credit you will be allowed to use on your US return will provide a credit for the tax you paid Puerto Rico by reducing your total tax (the tax liability and not the withholding on the PR return).
If you are a US citizen or resident alien, but not a bona fide resident of Puerto Rico during the tax year, you must generally file the following returns.
- A Puerto Rico tax return reporting only your income from Puerto Rico sources. Self employment for services performed in Puerto Rico, whether for a private employer, the U.S. government, or otherwise, are income from Puerto Rico sources.
- A U.S. tax return reporting income from worldwide sources. Generally, you can claim a foreign tax credit for income taxes paid to Puerto Rico on the Puerto Rico income that is subject to Puerto Rico taxes and not exempt from U.S. taxes.
Since you are not considered a bona fide resident of Puerto Rico, you want to prepare the Puerto Rico return first if possible as you have done. This is to determine the US Credit. Your credit is not based on tax withheld, but rather your tax withheld minus refund or in addition to additional tax due.
TurboTax does not support a Puerto Rico return. You will have to prepare your return from the Puerto Rico website. It is in Spanish but most computer software offers a translation if needed.
Publication 570 from the IRS will give you more information about this. Please update here if you need further assistance.
