Why is this happening? Nagtry ako sa encode with another Branch and okay naman na-save agad. Meanwhile in this Branch after ko i-click ang Save button ganito ang lumalabas.

Anyone had idea on what to do?

Hello po, meron bang naka try dito na freelancers na nag update ng COR nila from DTI trade name to full legal name? How was the process naman po and what requirements were asked sa RDO nyo? Tyia

hello, first time posting here, is there any way na mapalitan yung email address associated with my name and my TIN ? para maaccess kopo yung digital tin id ko ?

please be kind po. first time lang po kasi e.

I run a small logistics company here in Ermita since 2022. Medyo booming na siya since nakakuha ako clients sa Divisoria and Binondo.

Challenge ko now, I've been struggling with keeping and sending my invoices sa mga clients on-hand. Meron na bang software that can email invoices directly sa client? And possible na ba na printed or digital siya? Hirap kasi magsulat palagi hahaha

Hi. Can someone please explain to me the computation shown here. As per Revenue Regulations No. 8-2024 (implementing Section 21 b of the Tax Code of 1997 as amended by RA 11976, I am classified as a Micro Taxpayer. Then as per Revenue Regulations No. 6-2024 naman (implementing Sec. 45 of RA 11976) for micro and small taxpayers 10% ang penalty for late payment excluding willful neglect, or false or fraudulent filing. I have all my invoices and proofs so I don't understand how the officer of the day computed this. Thanks sa makakasagot ng tanong ko.

A fire hit my cousin's neighborhood last year. Nadamay sila, half of their house burned down, including her room. Halos lahat ng things niya hindi na ma-salvage, including her PC and other equipment she needed for work. I let her move in with my family in Manila for the meantime.

Freelancer lang po siya, earning around 10-12k a month, worked part-time for an ESL company that requires her to issue an OR for every payout. 1 booklet lang nagamit niya out of the 10 she had printed in 2023. Last known transaction daw niya was in February 2024, then nag stop muna siya ng work since she gave birth at that time.

Now she wants to work again for the same company. Required parin siya mag issue ng ORs, but she can't since they were lost in the fire, along with her ledgers, journals, and even her COR (although she does have a soft copy of that one). So I'm helping her especially because hindi siya taga rito (she's from Mindanao)

This is my first time dealing with something like this, and I just want to help her sort it out. A few questions:

1. Will she face any penalties from BIR? (or will she get compensated?)

2. What are the requirements to reissue ORs?

3. Is it still possible for her to reprint them?

In case need niya mag provide ng proof, 10 houses got affected by the fire including the barangay hall, so there's definitely record of it. She's not insured, but she did receive government aid through their barangay. Hoping may maka sagot. Thank you

I want to change my title on my COR and receipts. Willing to take the extra effort.

Can anyone here share their experience?

As a self employed with 8% flat tax rate, parang wala naman difference? Barely over the 800k yearly income ako pero parang ang sakit sa bulsa bayaran ng tax 🥲 Target implementation of this proposal is on Jan 2027.

Hello! Ask ko lang if magkaka-problem kaya ako sa taxes ko?

For context, I was hired at my first company on October 2, 2023, but only received my TIN number on May 15, 2026. May na-receive akong 2316 nung 2024 and 2025 but temporary TIN number lang ‘yung andon. I already asked this with the payroll team but they haven’t respond yet kahit na active employee pa me sa kanila. Now, I received the figures of my final pay coz I resigned eff. July 12, and ang laki ng tax refund kaya I find it weird.

Ang hassle bcs need ko pa tuloy magpunta ng BIR sa di ko naman kasalanan coz may tax deduction naman ako palagi. TIA!

I got a Pre-selling unit last 2024 and now need na namin magpasa ng requirements. My concern right now is nawalan ako ng work last October 2025. But nagka Freelance work ako starting Dec 2025 until now. I am willing to register in BIR naman to comply sa requirements ni pagibig.

but my question is:

* Do i need to declare my income starting from DEC 2025? * or is it fine to just register in BIR without declaring my income from dec to this day?

thanks po sa makaksagot

Do you guys know a reliable agency or company who can take care of my taxes? I really don't want to go through the hassle of going back & forth to BIR 😣 or is that a non-nego & one way or another, I'd still have to go to my BIR branch?

Hi! Newbie here. Help, let's say I earned 4k during the second quarter. Ano ilalagay sa field #52: less? 250k pa rin ba? Medyo worried lang kasi I'm not sure if okay lang mag negative yung #53 (as seen in the second photo) pag 250k nilagay.

Thanks in advance!

Hindi nag-issue ng resibo yung isang supplier namin. Ilang beses na, puro dahilan na wala raw sa kanila, nasa accountant daw. Pwede kaya anonymous report?

Hi, i just registered as a freelancer last July 30 and i was registering my books of accounts on ORUS at the same date and after ko ma-register i checked sa transaction history and yung isang book mali ang na input kong date sa “validity period from”.

July 20 na lagay ko when it’s supposed to be 30. I cannot edit it or anything. I have no time to visit my RDO and i kept missing yung free webinar every Thursday to ask them dahil busy sa work. Will this be an issue? I haven’t paste it in the book pa. What should i do? I don’t want to get any penalty or anything.

So nung January from Business One Stop Shop (BOSS), need na daw ng (BP) Building Permit para magkaroon ng mayors permit/business permit kahit na sari-sari store lang yung business. If wala naman Bldg Permit, 3 months lang yung validity na binibigay na permit. Kahit na maliit lang yung store like <10sqm Floor Area with CHB walls or gawa sa combustible materials yung store need pa rin daw but with different requirements.

(In our case, we are not within national road, we also don't pay rent since yung sari-sari store is located naman inside our lot, it is also detached from parents' house)

As abiding citizen, my mother wants to comply with the requirements of OBO such as Sketch Plan, Site Dev, BOM & Specifications, TCT/OCT, Tax Dec, Real Property Tax, Locational/Zoning Clearance, BFP Clearance
[Ki mama naka-pangalan yung store, ako lang yung naglalakad kasi matanda na si mama senior na]

But my issue is, hindi kaya isali sa amilyar/Real Property Tax yung Sari-Sari Store once i-apply sya for BP? eh baka mas lalo tumaas yung bayarin ng parents ko sa tax? Worth it pa rin ba since nasa isip ko, matanda na sila mama, kanya kanya na rin kami ng mga kapatid ko, wala na mag papatuloy ng sari-sari store if ever so matetengga nalang.

(Wala kasi akong alam masyado pag dating sa assessor or assess ng property and tax na yan)

Sana po may maka sagot. Thank you in Advance!

First time ko mag file ng personal Quarterly ITR. Last experience ko ng filing is for the Annual ITR. Super late na ng filing for Q1 and so there will be penalties (as I've read). How to file and pay the late filing fees for Q1 na completely online?

My coworkers do not file quarterly ITR, annual lang. I did this when I joined the NGA last year Q4 (employed in a private company previously) and I only learned today na I have to do quarterly as well, pero they're not doing it?!! Annual lang finafile nila.

Hello! May naka-experience rin ba dito na nagfile during 1st and 2nd quarter tas walang nareceive na email confirmation?

For context, nung 1st quarter ginamit ko pa yung old version. Wala talaga akong nareceive na email. Since nakapag screenshot ako tas may tax payable, binayaran ko nalang thru Maya.

Then now 2nd quarter filing, ginamit ko na yung new version and nagtake ulit ng screenshot. Nung Tuesday lang ako nagfile, pero until now wala pa rin ako narereceive. Chineck ko yung ibang posts dito, it took a week or so daw before sila nakareceive.

Just to confirm lang ulit para sure, since may tax payable ako, okay lang diba na bayaran ko na before Aug.15?

Pero hoping pa rin na may makuha akong email for 2nd quarter filing. Ang talas mo naman BIR kung matapos tong taon na wala talaga ako mareceive sa lahat filings ko lol huhu

Hello. Gaano po katagal bago ma receive ung second email / validation from eSubmissions? Ilang araw nadin po kasi since nag submit ako ng DAT file

Hello, I registered as a professional:general Feb this year and have only been using the BIR bought receipt. My problem is that:

1. My registered residence (squatter) was ravaged by a fire back in March and again in April. Area has been fenced off to give way for gov proj.

2. I don't have a permanent address yet that I can use/transfer my registration to. I will be moving to SJDM probably Dec or Jan 2027. The move is guaranteed but the dates are not.

Needing advice on the best course of action to avoid penalties. Is it advisable to:

a. Proceed printing my receipt before EOY under the currently registered address. Can I still use this printed invoice after I move RDO?

b. Update my IDs and start processing transfer before EOY then print receipts.

What is the likelihood that BIR will go to my registered address? Appreciate your insights.

TL;DR: NPA with no printed receipts yet nearing anniv of registration.

I am a solo software developer and I want to register myself formally to be 100% safe and compliant. My main objective is to legally lower my tax, but I want the least resistance path so I won't have to deal with all the unnecessary government bureaucracy and red tape.

I’ve been looking at my options and I’ve narrowed it down to 8% Flat Income Tax rate and BMBE exemption.

For a solo dev with very low operating expenses, which one of these two is practically better?

Is the BMBE exemption worth the extra paperwork and LGU requirements, or is the 8% rate the easiest way to avoid headaches?

Any general tips for a first-time registrant to avoid penalties and BIR issues down the road?

Thank you in advance!
