Purpose: Scholarship purposes
Date of Coverage: 06/12/2022 - 07/12/2022

Alob 11:30 AM, Jul 12, 2022 

I am writing this email to ask about getting a tax exemption certificate. The following are my questions:

1. What are the documents that I need to submit to receive a tax exemption certificate for educational assistance purposes of my so?

2. If my spouse is an OFW and currently working abroad with an annual income of Php250,000, is he eligible to receive a tax exemption certificate?
  - If yes, could I get the said certificate for him and may I know what are the additional requirements if only the representative will claim the certificate?

Thank you!
