No. We don't have statehood. We have a Commonwealth Status.
The US Virgin Islands are an unincorporated organized territory of the United States of America. That means they are a territory, and a possession, of the US. They are a self-governing territory but are not styled as a Commonwealth. Residents of the US Virgin Islands are not subject to U.S. federal income taxes on income derived from U.S. Virgin Islands sources. They pay taxes to the territory equal to what their federal taxes would be if they lived in a state.
Residents of Guam, Puerto Rico, the Commonwealth of the Northern Marianas Islands, and the US Virgin Islands are all citizens of the United States. (Residents of American Samoa are non-citizen nationals.)
In addition to the State of Hawai'i, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico is an island, as are the territories of the American Virgin Islands, and protectorates (Guam, Marshall Islands, etc) and millions of other islands.
