Dear Ms. Bisnan:

I refer to my letter of Jan 27, 2024 07:24:51 PM about your request under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch, for Requesting for a copy of my BIR 2316 form.

In reply, please be informed that we verify from the BIR system and you are registered as Local Employee, thus, you may secure your Certificate of Compensation Payment/Tax Withheld (BIR Form 2316) from your employer (s) for the Calendar Year (s) 2016 up to 2022.

BIR Form No. 2316 is a form issued by your employer (A Certificate). Hence, you may request for the issuance of the said documents to the issuing company. You must be issued of the copy of the said form on or before January 31 of the succeeding year.

With the employer's obligation to give you the original copy of the form, it is therefore your right to request said copy from your employer. 

While our aim is to provide information whenever possible, in this instance the Revenue District Office (RDO) where your employer (s)  is/are registered would take longer to provide you the information you have requested. They have to verify if your employer (s) has submitted to them the List of Employees Qualified under substituted Filing of Income Tax Return (Annex F). Furthermore, the date of filing should also be given for the RDO to be able to verify at the fastest possible time.

For assistance, email sherry.ann.arcita@bir.gov.ph and indicate in the email subject ticket number #BIR-412460319811, to respond.

As an added information, the available records of documents available in the RDOs are from Calendar Year (s) 2020 up to 2022.

During the period of us awaiting your reply, your request will be put on hold. If we do not receive a reply on or before Apr 22, 2024 05:04:02 AM, your request will be closed.

We hope to hear from you at the soonest possible time.

Thank you.

Respectfully,

FOI Officer
Public Information and Education Division
