Dear Mr. Mariano,
I refer to my letter of Aug. 10, 2021, 04:13:00 PM about your request under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch, for Copy of Income Tax Return Form 2316.
In order for us to work further on your request, we need more information from you regarding your query. Kindly provide us the following details:
- What ITR did you file? Was it 1700 or 1701?
- May we know where you filed your ITR, what RDO are you registered with?
- Tax Return Confirmation Receipt (if your ITR were filed online)
Furthermore, 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.
However, if you have been employed and your income tax has been correctly withheld, has only one employer and has been qualified for substituted filing, the Certificate of Withholding filed by your employer, duly stamped "Received" by the Bureau, shall be tantamount to the filing of the income tax return. You may request Form 2316 from your employer as it is mandated by law that every employer shall issue BIR Form No. 2316 to every employee before the close of such calendar year, 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 Nov. 02, 2021, 08:19:03 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
