October 17, 2022 Dear Ms. Alvarado: Greetings! Thank you for your request dated Oct 16, 2022 under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch. Your request You asked for Income Tax Return/BIR Form 2316. Response to your request In connection with your request through eFOI Portal pertaining to the request for a copy of Income Tax Return/BIR Form 2316 as a Substitute Income Tax Return for Taxable Year 2016. Please be informed that such request cannot be granted by the Revenue District Office (RDO) since the aforesaid BIR Withholding Tax Certificates were issued in 2016 and records of the RDO on those periods 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, It will be practical and appropriate for you to refer to your former employer and ask for the said copies where it actually originated. 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. Thank you. Respectfully yours, FOI Officer Public Information and Education Division
