It really wasn't an issue for my NC software...it works either way
But in the NC software, if I break out PR&NC amounts separately, then it just doesn't include either the NC or PR $$ amounts in the Other state's $$ added-back as state income (what would be your PIT-RES line 2). SO for me, the PR $$ are already excluded.
Then My US Obligations, to be subtracted from NC income, (your PIT-RES line 5)......for NC, that only includes $$ from box 3 on 1099-INT forms + US obligation amounts extracted from box 1a on 1099-DIV forms.

(The NC software does miss any 1099-INT box 1 $$ from the TVA, and certain other US-Backed Organizations ((FDIC, FLB, FFB etc) that I have to enter directly on the NC worksheet in Forms Mode using Desktop software)
