Flores 10:15 AM, Jun 06, 2022 

Hi! Can I please request a copy of my ITR? I need it as a requirement for my new employment, and my previous one’s taking too long to process it. I’m afraid I’ll miss the opportunity of securing this new job because of it. I hope you can help me. Thanks!

Dear Ms. Jachel Dorothy:

Greetings!

Thank you for your request dated Jun 06, 2022 under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch.

Your request

You asked for Income Tax Return.

In reply, we refer you to Section 6 of Revenue Regulations (RR) 10-2008 wherein employers are required to furnish every employee from whose compensation taxes have been withheld BIR Form 2316 Certificate of Compensation Payment/Tax Withheld on or before January 31 of the succeeding year or if employment is terminated before the close of such calendar year, on the day on which the last payment of compensation is made.  Failure to furnish the same shall be a ground for the mandatory audit of payor's income tax liabilities (including withholding tax) upon verified complaint of the payee.

Hence, we suggest that you coordinate with your employer  (01/20/21- 02/11/2022) as they are the ones who prepare your BIR Form 2316 Certificate of Income and Tax Withheld and issue the same to their employees.

Otherwise, you may try to request a copy of your BIR Form 2316 with the Revenue District Office (RDO) where your employer is registered and submits reports only if your employer submitted the same to them.

Addresses and contact numbers of RDOs can be found in the BIR website at www.bir.gov.ph homepage/contact us/directory/revenue district offices links.

Thank you.

Respectfully,
Vanessa Badeo            
Alternate FOI Officer
