Bureau of Internal Revenue(BIR)

Hi, I would like to request for my BIR FORM 2316

December 28, 2022

Dear Ms. Salvo:

Greetings!

Thank you for your request dated Dec 28, 2022 under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch.

Your request

You asked for BIR FORM 2316 for Calendar Year 2021-2022.

Response to your request

Per our phone conversation today, December 28, we deny your request for a copy of your BIR Form 2316 for the Year 2022 because the BIR Revenue District Office (RDO) does not have yet the information you have requested. The BIR Form 2316 for Calendar Year 2022 has not yet been submitted by your Employer 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 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. 

Also, kindly coordinate with your former employer in case you have not been provided/received a copy of your BIR Form 2316 for the year 2021.
