July 22, 2022 Dear Maria Cristina Nazareno, I refer to my letter of Jul 07, 2022 06:08:43 AM about your request under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch, for My Income Tax Return report for year 2011-2020. Kindly provide us the following data in order for us to evaluate your requested information: 1. Your Tax Identification Number (TIN) 2. Name of your employer 3. TIN of your employer 4. Address of your employer Moreover, based on your address provided, you are from Sta. Cruz, Laguna. Please be informed that your filing and submission of income tax return (BIR Form 1701 or 1700) should be done on the Revenue District Office having jurisdiction of the place where you are registered as well as your employer’s submission of their employees’ BIR Form 2316 which should have been done on the Revenue District Office where your employer is registered. However, due to Data Privacy Act of 2012 and Section 270 of the National Internal Revenue Code, as amended, we can only provide you a copy of your own income tax return if we verify, in our records, that you have filed any in our District Office, RDO 60 – Lucena City. Hence, you may ask your previous employer for the copy/ies of your Certificate of Compensation Payment/ Tax Withheld (BIR Form 2316) because all taxpayers are required to preserve their accounting records for the period of 10 years in accordance with the Revenue Memorandum Circular No. 29-2019. 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 Oct 14, 2022 06:29:38 AM, your request will be closed. You may also personally come to our office for us to assist you further. Our office is located at BIR RDO 60 - Lucena City, North Quezon, Lucena Grand Central Terminal, Brgy.
