To whom it may concern,

I would like to request a copy of my Income Tax Return for the year 2021. I resigned to my previous employer last January 2022. I haven't received a copy of my BIR Form 2316 for fiscal year 2021. I am an individual earning on purely compensation income from the period of  01/08/2018-01/16/2022 at EXL service philippines. The address of the company is: 
6th Floor, OneE-com Center Harbor Drive, Mall of Asia Complex 1308, Pasay, 3001 Metro Manila Philippines
Telephone number: +63 2 8669 2966

Thank you.

Dear Ms. Nolasco:

I refer to my letter of Feb 01, 2023 07:28:11 AM about your request under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch, for BIR Form 2316.

In relation to your request lodged through the eFOI Portal, regarding your BIR Form 2316 for the Calendar Year 2021, upon verification in the BIR database, no record has been found pertaining to your former Employer's (EXL Service Philippines) Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN). 

It would be helpful and highly appreciated if the TIN is provided because your request will be forwarded to the concerned Revenue District Office (RDO) where your employer (during the coverage period) submits their
employees’ BIR Form 2316 and where your former Employer is registered. 

A Certification of the Transmittal from your Former Company that You are included in the 'Annex F' received by the BIR-Revenue District Office will be required from you ("Annex F" from the company duly stamped by the BIR in which your name is included in the transmittal).

On the other hand, may we then suggest that you refer directly to your former employer as the said document was originally from the company and should have been provided to you after it has been filed in the BIR. 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.

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 26, 2023 04:57:38 AM, your request will be closed.

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

Thank you.

Respectfully yours,

FOI Receiving Officer
