Dear Ms. Barco,

Greetings!

Thank you for your request dated Mar 28, 2022 under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch.

Your request
You asked for A humbly request.

Response to your request
While our aim is to provide information whenever possible, in this instance this Office does not have the information you have requested as ITR for 2021 is yet to be filed on or before April 15.

However, if you have been employed and your withholding tax has been correctly withheld by your employer, provided that you have only one employer and has been qualified for substituted filing for the taxable year - the Certificate of Withholding (BIR Form 2316) filed by your employer, duly stamped "Received" by the Bureau, shall be tantamount to the filing of the income tax return.

Thus, you may directly request BIR Form 2316 for this year from your employer as it is also mandated by law that every employer shall issue BIR Form No. 2316 to every employee before the close of such calendar year, or if employment is terminated, on the day on which the last payment of compensation is made. 

Thank you and stay safe.

Respectfully,

Ana Marie Du
FOI Officer
