LAOAG CITY—The Bureau of Internal Revenue is calling on Ilocano taxpayers to attend a continuing seminar on online tax payment system to avoid unnecessary penalty should they fail to file their returns using the mandatory electronic forms.

Revenue District Officer Simplicio Cabantac said a continuing seminar is open for taxpayers at for them to familiarize themselves how to accomplish the online forms in filing their tax returns.

On March 15, Finance Secretary Cesar V. Purisima and Revenue Commissioner Kim Jacinto-Henares issued Revenue Regulations No. 5-2015, mandating tax payers to file their income tax returns electronically on or before the June 15 deadline.

Mr. Cabantac however reiterated that those with “No Payment” returns may also file manually on or before April 15.

Taxpayers who fail to submit their returns using the Electronic Filing and Payment System (eFPS) and the Electronic BIR Forms (eBIRForms) will have a penalty of P1,000 per return and at least 25 percent surcharges of the tax due to be paid, as mandated under the National Internal Revenue Code (NIRC) of 1997.

To avoid penalty, Mr. Cabantac urges all Ilocano tax payers to follow the set guidelines and take advantage of the electronic filing system for fast and convenient filing of returns.

As the “No Payment” returns has been observed clogging the BIR web facility, Mr. Cabantac said the deadlines should be met accordingly.

Under RR 6-2014 issued last September, non-eFPS filers are mandated to use the eBIRForms in filing all their tax returns. eBIRForms is an application covering 36 BIR forms, such as income tax returns, excise tax forms, value-added tax or VAT forms, withholding tax forms, documentary stamp tax forms, percentage tax forms, Onett forms and payment forms.


Non-eFPS filers covered by RR 6-2014 are the following: accredited tax agents/practitioners and all their client-taxpayers; accredited printers of principal and supplementary receipts/invoices, and one-time transaction taxpayers (Onett).
