Hi. I would like to seek your help in getting a copy of my BIR 2316 for year 2011, 2017,2018, and 2021 as my first employer have physically restructured and old documents was misplaced and wasn't digitalised and my second employer refused to give me a copy of my own 2316 when I requested for it, probably for reasons that they did not want to see their archives. These documents will be used for working visa application.
