Frequently asked questions on ITR filing
BIR has compiled and answered the most frequently asked questions relating to the use of eBIRForms and eFPS, preparing the ITR, filing and payment, including work-around procedures in case of system failure.
New BIR announcements re: ITR filing
The following new rules/procedures have been announced in the above RMCs: (1) On-line filing is deferred for no-payment returns (2) Taxpayers newly enrolled for eFPS but who have not completed registration with the bank shall electronically file their returns and pay the taxes manually (3) Use the new eBIRForms package v4.7.08 (4) For taxpayers who have enrolled for the online eBIRForms but were not successful in lodging their returns through the offline eBIRForms facility (no email notification, not successfully filed, etc.), they are advised to send their tax returns by email following the procedures in Annex D of RMC 14- 2015.
New Guidelines in filing of ITRs
All taxpayers mandated to use eFPS/eBIRForms are advised to use the latest version of Offline eBIRForms Package in filing their income tax returns (v4.7.07). Taxpayers not mandated to use the online platform of BIR may file manually using the existing manual procedures. Taxpayers using the Offline eBIRForms v4.7.07 can easily submit the 2014 ITR via email and subsequently enroll after eFiling. Thus, email submission of the 2014 ITR is allowed whether or not enrolled to eBIRForms system.
Clarification on filing of no-payment returns
The following taxpayers with “no-payment” ITRs are not obligated to file using the online eBIRForms, as prescribed in the Revenue Regulations (RR) 6- 2014 and 5- 2015. (1) Senior citizens or persons with disabilities (2) Employees deriving purely compensation income, whether from single or multiple employers, and whose income tax has been fully withheld (3) Employees who are qualified for substituted filing but opted to file an ITR for whatever reason. Nevertheless, they are encouraged to use offline eBIRForms for convenience, completeness and accuracy. They are likewise encouraged to file electronically to avoid the crowd and long lines. Business taxpayers with no-payment returns mandated to use eBIRForms/eFPS must electronically file returns.
Clarification on tax filing by clients of accredited tax agents
Revenue Regulations No. 6- 2014: “Accredited tax agents/practitioners and all its client-taxpayers” who are non eFPS are required to use the online eBIRForms in filing their returns. It is to be noted that “client-taxpayers” shall mean those who are authorizing their tax agents/practitioners to file their returns on their behalf. This does not cover taxpayers whose tax agent/practitioner only sign the audit certificate but who have no authority to file the returns on their behalf. However, clients should be encouraged to use the BIR electronic filing and payment facilities.
