MANILA (Philippine Daily Inquirer/ANN): The Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) said that the April 15,2021 deadline for the filing of income tax returns (ITRs) and paying of income taxes stays.
Revenue Memorandum Circular (RMC) No. 46-2021 issued by BIR Commissioner Caesar Dulay on Tuesday (April 6) said that contrary to erroneous reports, “the deadline for filing [2020 annual income tax] return and payment of taxes due thereon is not extended.”
Dulay said the BIR will nonetheless accept tentative annual income tax returns as long as these were filed before or on the day of the mandatory deadline under the Tax Code.
