What type of income do you report on the federal tax return? If your income is more than your deductions you will have a tax liability, unless you qualify for a credit. Is there a treaty that exempts your income from taxation that would allow you a credit?

Hi, since I am a federal government employee, I have to file taxes with the IRS. However, my tax responsibility is in Puerto Rico where taxes are 33%, I am supposed to receive full reimb of federal deductions through form 1116, which I do not see available.
