Best Answer

Puerto Rico would be represented by an additional star on the US flag if and only if it were to become a state and join the Union. So, far, that option has been voted down by the people of Puerto Rico when they have had opportunities to vote on that possibliity.

When should Puerto Rico be added to the US flag?

A star representing Puerto Rico would be added to the US flag only if Puerto Rico were to become a State in the Union. At present it is a self-governing territory of the United States, not a State. The option to seek statehood has failed to win a majority in several plebiscites held in Puerto Rico, so, for the time being, there will be no star representing Puerto Rico.
