Issues: (1) Whether the IRS should decline to coverover net tax collections, attributable to individuals who may not be residents of the VI, and the returns forwarded back to the BIR with the Issue: clearly identified?

(3) In instances where a return was filed with and processed by the IRS prior to receipt of a return for that taxpayer to be covered over, the cover over return causes a duplicate filing condition.
