The TaxAct program does not support the returns for the U.S. Virgin Islands; however, if you were a U.S. Citizen or Resident Alien and not a Bona Fide resident of the U.S. Virgin Islands, you may only need to file Form 8689, Allocation of Individual Income Tax to the U.S. Virgin Islands, and send a copy of your U.S. tax return (including all attachments and Form 8689) to the Virgin Islands Bureau of Internal Revenue (and also to the IRS).
You can use the Forms Assistant to search for and add Form 8689 to your return.
In dashboard navigation, go to Resources, scroll to the Assistants section, and select Forms Assistant.
In classic navigation, click Tools > Forms Assistant.
On desktop, click Forms and locate the federal form in the Forms Explorer.
Once you have entered the applicable information on the Form 8689, you will see the text "Form 8689" print next to Form 1040 U.S. Individual Income Tax Return, Line 7a and the total of Form 8689, Line 30 will be included in that total.
If you decide to e-file the Federal return, Form 8689 will be sent with that submission. If you decide to paper-file the return, the return will need to be sent to the IRS address as outlined in the Form 8689 instructions.
In both instances, e-filing or paper-filing with the IRS, you will need to file a return with the USVI that is identical to the return filed with the IRS. This identical return should be sent to the address within the Form 8689 instructions.
NOTE Form 8689 applies only to allocating U.S. federal tax between the IRS and USVI—it is not a replacement for filing a USVI territorial return. Bona fide residents of the USVI typically file only with VIBIR, not the IRS.
