Your Request You asked for Updated Form 2316. Response to Request In reply, you are requesting for a copy of your Updated BIR Form 2316 and asked if you can possibly get it online. Please allow me to ask if you receive a copy of the BIR Form 2316 or Certificate of Compensation Payment/Tax Withheld For Compensation Payment With or Without Tax Withheld from your Employer? If the answer is no, please coordinate with your former employer and ask for the copy of said form. Please be informed that BIR Form 2316 must be accomplished by an employer for each employee receiving salaries, wages, and other forms of remuneration, indicating the total amount paid and the taxes withheld for the calendar year. It must be issued to the employee on or before Jan. 31 of the succeeding year, or on the day of last payment of wages in case of termination from employment. This certificate, will serve as your ITR being an employee earning purely compensation income regardless of the amount. You are qualified to “Substituted Filing” of ITR pursuant to Revenue Regulation (RR) No. 2-98 as amended. I hope above information will be of great help in securing the desired copy of your BIR Form 2316. Thank you. Respectfully yours, FOI Officer Public Information and Education Division
