Good Day.

I just want to request for a copy of my BIR 2316 for the year of 2022. I've been asking for a copy from my previous employer but they keep on ignoring me and my emails and my current company needs the form within this month. I hope your kind office could assist me with my request as this document is a crucial requirement for my current employment. Thank you.

Dear Ms. VICTORIANO:

Greetings!

Thank you for your request dated May 22, 2023 01:45:52 AM under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch.

Your request

You asked for BIR 2316 COPY REQUEST.

Response to your request

In reply, please be informed that “ALL EMPLOYERS WITH EMPLOYEES, WHETHER OR NOT THEY ARE MINIMUM WAGE EARNERs (MWEs), ARE REQUIRED TO ISSUE BIR FORM NO. 2316. 

BIR FORM NO. 2316 SHOULD BE ISSUE ON OR BEFORE JANAURY 31 FOLLOWING THE CALENDAR YEAR, OR, IF THE EMPLOYEE IS TERMINATED BEFORE THE END OF THE CALENDAR YEAR, ON THE DAY THE LAST SALARY OF THE EMPLOYEE IS PAID”

The duty therefore to provide you a copy of your ITR/BIR Form No. 2316 for a taxable year rests upon your employer. Your “ITR” is your personal document and as such your employer must release said document to you as a matter of right or better yet, if you have your payslips for the said year, you can give the same to help them come out with your form 2316.

Kindly coordinate with your employer if you have not receive a copy of your BIR Form 2316 for Calendar Year 2023. The Revenue District Office (RDO) gets a hold of the said BIR Form 2316 for the Calendar Year 2023 upon submission of your employer to them on or before February 28 of the following year.

Thank you.

Respectfully,

FOI Receiving Officer
