Greetings! 

I hope this message finds you well. My name is Drazyne and I am writing to request a Tax Exemption Certificate. I am a child of an OFW and my sister is currently in the process of applying for a scholarship, and one of the requirements is a BIR Tax Exemption Certificate for non-taxable income earners. I kindly request your assistance in providing the necessary documentation on how to obtain it. If there are specific forms to fill out or procedures to follow, I would greatly appreciate any information you can share. 
Hoping for your kind consideration. Thank you and God bless!
