Dear Ms. Isorena,
I refer to my letter of Apr 01, 2022, 11:55:27 PM about your request under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch, for INCOME TAX RETURN.
In order for us to properly endorse and work further on your request, we need more information from you regarding your query. Kindly provide us with the following details and email them at ana.marie.du@bir.gov.ph. as these contain sensitive information
-What ITR form did you file for CY 2020?
-Where did you file your ITR, and what RDO are you registered with?
-Tax Return Confirmation Receipt (if your ITR was filed online)
Please be informed that the ITRs that we have in our files are those returns that were filed and paid over-the-counter through our various Accredited Agent Banks; however, for no-payment returns that were filed through our eBIRforms and EFPS system, we do not have the hard copies of these returns on file.
On the other hand, if you already filed your ITR for 2021, then you should have a copy of the same. In case you have not filed it yet and if you have been employed and your withholding tax has been correctly withheld by your employer, provided that you have only one employer and have been qualified for substituted filing for the taxable year - the Certificate of Withholding (BIR Form 2316) filed by your employer, duly stamped "Received" by the Bureau, shall be tantamount to the filing of the income tax return.
Furthermore, you may directly request BIR Form 2316 for this year from your employer as they are the main source of this document and 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 Jun 24, 2022, 10:05:21 AM, your request will be closed.
We hope to hear from you at the soonest possible time.
Thank you.
Respectfully,
Ana Marie Du
FOI Officer
