Dear Mr. Chanas,

Greetings!

Thank you for your request dated Apr 06, 2022 under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch.

Your request
You asked for a copy of your ITR for 2021.

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 your ITR for CY 2021, apparently ,has not yet been filed.

However, if you already filed, then you should have a copy of the same. In case you have not filed it yet and 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 just directly request BIR Form 2316  from your employer as they are the main source of this document and 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.

For your information and guidance.

Respectfully,

Ana Marie Du
FOI Officer


Dear Ma'am Ana Marie Du,

Thank you very much your help/FOI Team in taking action to my request for ITR 2021.  I just realized that I made a mistake, I was actually asking for copy of my ITR (Income Tax Return) for 2020 that was filed in 2021 instead of ITR for 2021, it should be ITR for 2020.

I have just submitted another request.  I hope it will be successful this time as I badly need that document.  How I wish the BIR system have a feature where previously submitted ITR can be viewed. 

Once again, thank you and more power to you and FOI Team.  Good job po. 


Sincerely,

Benedick Chanas
