Dear Mr. Lim,

I refer to my letter of Sept. 24, 2021, 02:08:18 PM about your request under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch, for Income Tax Return.

In order for us to work further on your request, in particular, it would be helpful to know exactly what you want, is it ITR or BIR form 2316?
To work further on your request, we need more information from you regarding your query. Kindly provide us the following details and email them at ana.marie.du@bir.gov.ph. as this contains sensitive information
-	What ITR did you file from 2014-2020? Was it 1700 or 1701? 
-	Where did you file your ITR, what RDO are you registered with?
-	Your TIN (if self-employed)
-	If employed, please indicate your employer’s TIN, RDO no., business name & address
-	Tax Return Confirmation Receipt (if your ITR were filed online) 

Please be informed that the ITRs that we have in our files are those returns that were filed and paid over-the-counter through our various Accredited Agent Banks; however, for no-payment returns that were filed through our eBIRforms and EFPS system, we do not have the hard copies of these returns on file. 

Furthermore, if you have been employed and your income tax has been correctly withheld, has only one employer, and has been qualified for substituted filing for, the Certificate of Withholding filed by your employer, duly stamped "Received" by the Bureau, shall be tantamount to the filing of the income tax return. You may request Form 2316 from your employer as it is mandated by law that every employer shall issue BIR Form No. 2316 to every employee before the close of such calendar year, if employment is terminated, on the day on which the last payment of compensation is made.

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 Dec. 17, 2021, 10:42:39 PM, your request will be closed.

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

Thank you.

Respectfully,

Ana Marie Du
FOI Officer
