To whom it may concern,

I would like to request a copy of my previous latest Income Tax Return. My contract with my previous employer has already been terminated since  June 15, 2023. I have received a letter regarding termination of my contract but I haven't received a copy of my BIR Form 2316.

Thank you.

Dear Mr. Suarez:

Greetings!

Thank you for your request dated Aug 17, 2023 under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch.

Your request

You asked for 2316.

Response to your request

In reply, please be informed that the BIR Form No. 2316 for Calendar Year 2023 has not yet been submitted by your Employer in the Revenue District Office (RDO) because the taxable period has not yet elapsed/finished. 

The RDO gets a hold of the said BIR Form 2316 upon submission of your employer on or before February 28 (per RR 2-2015 as amended by RR 16-2021) of the following year or in your case on or before February 28, 2024.

However, you may wish to contact/coordinate with your employer in case your employment with them has been terminated/ended per Section 6 of Revenue Regulations (RR) No. 10-2008 provides that it is the responsibility of the EMPLOYER to furnish the employee his/her BIR Form 2316 on or before January 31 of the succeeding calendar year, or if the employment is terminated before the close of such calendar year, on the day of which the last payment of compensation is made. 

Thank you.

Respectfully yours,

FOI Receiving Officer
Public Information and Education Division


Good day,

My former employer has not issued my final pay nor provided my 2316 upon separation. What should I advise my former employer regarding this matter? 

Regards,
Jan Vincent C. Suarez
