Dear Mr. Cata-an:
I refer to my letter of Jan 09, 2023 04:40:37 PM about your request under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch, for Income Tax Return and/or BIR Form 2316.
This is to acknowledge receipt of your email requesting for your Income Tax Return (ITR) covering Taxable Year 2021. We would like to know
whether you are a Mixed Income Earner (MIE)/Job Order Contract (JO)/Contract of Service (COS)/With Business or an Employee during the taxable year per your request?
As MIE/JO/COS/With Business, it means that you have other source/s of income other than employment and you are required to file your Individual Income Tax Return (either BIR Form 1701 or BIR Form 1701A).
However, if your Source of Income is Purely Compensation from your Employment, you are covered under Substituted Filing and Filing of Income Tax Return (ITR) is not required instead BIR Form 2316 must be accomplished by an employer for each employee receiving salaries, wages, and other forms of remuneration, indicating the total amount paid and the taxes withheld for the calendar year. It must be issued to the employee on or before Jan. 31 of the succeeding year, or on the day of last payment of wages in case of termination from employment. This certificate, will serve as your Income Tax Return (ITR) being an employee earning purely compensation income regardless of the amount. You are qualified to “Substituted Filing” of ITR pursuant to Revenue Regulation (RR) No. 2-98 as amended.
Please coordinate with your employer and ask for the copy of your BIR Form 2316 from the year 2021 if you have not receive a copy.
You may use the reply function on the eFOI portal at https://www.foi.gov.ph/requests/aglzfmVmb2ktcGhyHQsSB0NvbnRlbnQiEEJJUi03ODQ5MjA5NTMyNDYM, for request with ticket number #BIR-784920953246, to respond.
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 Apr 04, 2023 12:03:34 AM, your request will be closed.
We hope to hear from you at the soonest possible time.
