Submission of BIR 2316 still on Feb 28 deadline

 Whoever had this idea of submission of BIR 2316 to BIR, Sana hindi masarap Ang ulam niyo. I mean, what is your point?

Anyways, even with the super Tyhoon Odette hitting Visayas and level 3 of Cebu City up to Feb 16 2022, Deadlines haven't changed, still Feb 28

Things you need to know about BIR   

  1.  RDOs are not the same in terms of implementation. The people waiting keep comparing  RDO 081 with Mandaue RDO

2. Get ready with your folder, labeled and the documents punched and fastened                                        3. Documentary stamps and notarization.  Sa Rd 081, you can have it notarized in the new building. You can buy the docu stamps at P 30, at counter 1. They only sell  1 per company

Let's go back to BIR 2316. I'm putting down notes so I can read this in 2023

1. Scanned BIR 2316 only. Submit Cd or UsB labeled.  Individual files, format is lastname_TIN_1231YEAR. SWORN DECLARATION notarized shld be submitted with the flash drive. No docu stamp required. BIR will no longer receive hard copies 2316.

2. Page numbers at the bottom center 1 of 6, 2 of  6 , 3 of 6, etc

3.  Tax Withheld shld be equal to tax remitted                                   

4. Amount of compensation in certification is Item 19 in BiR 2316

5. Indicate resigned for those who resigned. I suggest to put those not qualified for substution, they may have other employers after they have resigned 

  6. Be early, BIR 081 only issues 100 numbers.                                    

7. Bring shawl, it's cold inside. Also bring snacks, water, charger. It's gonna be a long wait. On Feb 23, I arrived  6:45 am , I was on the 8th row, Number 30 and was called almost 12 noon.

8. Have lots of patience, lots and lots

On my first attempt at Feb 22, I arrived 7:10 am and I was in the 4th row. When I went inside, I didnt go to the priority number counter, so I wasted about  3 minutes.  I got number 21. I brought my laptop just in case there are problems with my flash drive and an extra flash drive (just in case). YOu never know what they see in the flash drive.

I was really hoping BIR would totally scratch out this submission of BIR 2313. If not, let it be sent online. PLease, please please.
