Dear Mr. Geron:

Greetings!

Thank you for your request dated Oct 13, 2022 under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch.

Your request

You asked for Request for 2316 Income Tax Return (ITR) and/or BIR Form 2316 for Calendar Year 2017 and 2019.

Response to your request

Please be informed that such request cannot be granted by this Office as well as the Revenue District Office (RDO) since the aforesaid BIR Withholding Tax Certificates were issued in 2017 and records of the RDO on those period are already unavailable since we follow strictly the five (5) year retention period based on existing revenue issuances of the BIR (Revenue Memorandum Circular 73-2008).

Hence, you may ask your previous employer for the copy  of your Certificate of Compensation Payment/ Tax Withheld (BIR Form 2316) because all taxpayers are required to preserve their accounting records for the period of 10 years in accordance with the Revenue Memorandum Circular No. 29-2019.

Please take note that for the year 2019 you are supposed to file the Annual Income Tax Return (ITR) since you have two (2) Employers namely Asurion Hongkong Limited and Oracle Netsuite Philippines Corporation, you are likewise have to file your Annual ITR using BIR Form 1700 through eBIR Forms (Apps downloadable at the BIR website, www.bir.gov.ph), attached and consolidate your 2316 from your companies. 

Thank you.

Respectfully yours,

FOI Officer
Public Information and Education Division
