BIR warns of penalties for late filing of 2022 ITR, says April 17 deadline won't be extended

Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) Commissioner Romeo D. Lumagui, Jr. has made a last-minute appeal to individual, corporate and partnership   taxpayers to file their 2022 income tax returns (ITRs) and pay correct taxes as the tax filing season ends on Monday, April 17. The BIR chief reiterated that the deadline will not be extended--and late filers will be fined with  25 percent surcharge on the amount due, 15 percent annual interest, plus compromise penalties required by the Tax Code . "Those who don't file returns, or under declare income to save on tax payments will be charged with tax evasion," he warned. Lumagui said the returns maybe submitted at any revenue district office (RDO) in the country without penalty for wrong venue filing and taxes paid through authorized agent banks (AABs), electronic payment (ePayment) channels of the bureau, or revenue collection officers (RDO) assigned in the  district office. He reminded taxpayers required to use the electronic filing and payment system  (eFPS) to file and pay taxes through AAB  where they are enrolled in. Lumagui said that in case the eFPS can't be accessed due to enrollment problems and other issues the said taxpayers may use the eBIRForms facility. The eBIRForms payments maybe coursed to any AAB, RCO, or ePayment portals. The channels accept tax payments through the use of online facility of government-owned banks like the Land Bank of the Philippines and the Development Bank of the Philippines. Lumagui said the channels also accept credit, debit and prepaid cards as well as mobile payments such as GCash, Maya and MyEG. The ePayment platforms can be reached at [www.bir.gov.ph](http://www.bir.gov.ph). The "no payment ITR," he said shall be filed through eBIRForms facility. He said, however, senior citizens and persons with disabilities are allowed to file ITR  manually. Likewise, salaried workers who are exempted from filing returns under the substituted filing system may also opt to file ITR manually for purposes of travel abroad, promotion, scholarship and loan.
