I anxious for information as well. I spend 6-8 months in Condado, and the rest in CT. I need good tax advice. Please share and contact info for CPA's etc.

There been several postings about act 20 and 22, have you searched, there are companies that will walk you thru the process, advice you and help you file. I would recommend to stay in the staters un till you get a go ahead that you been accepted.

Also there are one or more act 20 / 22 groups in Facebook.

Nope!  Been in AZ, TX and CO for the past years... and now PR.  I'm getting too old for this... LOL!

My husband is in touch with an attorney in Dorado who is working with him.  I was just curious to know if anyone on this forum had gone through the process. 

We will be in Condado Aug. 30 to Sept. 5...  Looking forward to it!

David over on blackandgoldcoast.com did a post about it, he was featured here on expat awhile ago.

Met someone from CA; they're being audited.

You mean IRS is auditing them?

Thanks for the shout out Karen.  Also, in case not everyone is aware, there is new legislation regarding both of these acts.  One bill relaxes the 5 employee requirement for Act 20 (the exact number would be given on a case by case basis).  Another bill mandates that Act 22 grantees donate $5000 a year to a Puerto Rican charity.  I believe both of these bills are just awaiting signature by the governor.
