Dear Bitonga,

Greetings!

Thank you for your request dated Mar 22, 2022 under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch.

Your request
You asked for BIR 2316 (Certificate of Compensation Payment/Tax Withheld).

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 is yet to be filed on or before April 15.

However, it is advised that you better ask for a copy of your 2316 directly from your employer as they are the main source of such documents. 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.
