Bureau of Internal Revenue(BIR)

Hi!

I would like to request a copy of my previous latest Income Tax Return. My contract with my previous employer which is Alorica - Cubao, Quezon City site has already been terminated since January 11, 2022. I have received a letter regarding termination of my contract but I haven't received a copy of my BIR Form 2316. 

I worked on them from June 2021 to January 2022.

Thank you.

Dear Ms. Garcia:

Greetings!

Thank you for your request dated Oct 17, 2022 under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch.

Your request

You asked for BIR Form 2316.

Response to your request

While our aim is to provide information whenever possible, in this instance the BIR Revenue District Office (RDO) does not have the information you have requested. The BIR Form 2316 for Calendar Year 2022 has not yet been submitted by your Former Employer (Alorica Philippines, Inc.) in the 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, 2023.

However, you may wish to contact/coordinate with your former employer (Alorica Philippines, Inc.) 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 Officer
