ICYMI: The BIR has eased some of the tax requirements for Pogos to resume operations under a less restrictive COVID-19 community quarantine.

In Annex A of memo No. 64-2020, the BIR removed specific coverage dates for franchise tax payments, even as the earlier memorandum circular specified the settlement for dues in 2019 and the first quarter of 2020.

In the case of Pogo service providers, the earlier memo included among the conditions that Pogos must have had “remitted and paid the withholding taxes due from the months of January to April 2020, including the 25-percent final withholding tax due from their foreign employees.”The same was true for Pogo service providers’ tax arrears—the phrase “for prior years” present in memo No. 46-2020 was scrapped.

Last Monday , Finance Secretary Carlos G. Dominguez III said the BIR will still collect unpaid taxes from Pogos even if they leave.

really unfair to the Filipino people

Meron bang Congressional franchise ang POGO. Mag apply sila madali Lang Nila Makukuha yun para legal sila.

Oust these motherfuckers in our country

ay kala ko nakolekta na ng malacañang?

Sabi ko na kwento lang yung sinabi ni andrea domingo...pinapaikot lang talaga tayo. Kung paano nila pigain ang isan legitimong corporasyon tulad ng abs cbn..pinagbibigyan ang mga intsik...BAKIT, BAKIT MAS MAHAL PA NILA ANG INTSIK KAYSA KAPWA PILIPINO...

REPORT those POGOs to news channel. Kailangan ng Pilipino magka-isa.

may wfh din sila. Nobody was implementing so what do we expect?

Tayo talaga ang maga adjust eh no?

Ayan ang malasakit.

I know a corporation that pays more than a billion in taxes but this government shut it down.

Tuwad pa!

Please specify the kind of tax. Based on what i've heard, it's a kind of additional tax applied to them. Not the percetion that no tax was paid. It is misinformation. Fake to some.

sure, but let's add taxes to small and medium-scale businesses, online sellers, and bike registrations for people going to work. OKAY!!!!!!!! SIGE!!!!!!! PANO KAYO NAKAKATULOG SA GABI AH

Yung nagnakaw ng Spam sa halagang P381 kulong pero ito, pwedeng pag-usapan?! 😡

Sana ganyan din kayo sa mga Pinoy, June 1 ang GCQ tapos June 9 and 15 agad ang deadline nyo. Ano ang hindi nyo maiintindihan sa walang kinita sa loob ng ECQ ang mga business kaya hirap makapagbayad ng buwis?

Un tax ng abs cbn di nio hahabulin?

birgovph wow! 1st class citizen talaga tong mga intsik! Anyare

Tengene

'Under the table' -- Sabi ni Lola

No tax fraud cases birgovph ? Bayad ba nanaman kayo!

i thought we already said our goodbyes to them? someone did say 'the departure of POGOs won't be a loss to the Philippine economy'. why not just let them go?

Sana all... pantay pantay na pagtingin lalo na sa mga Pilipino. Sana maka-Pilipino naman tau. Sana magandang pagkakataon para sa mga Pilipino. Nakakalungkot talaga na iba pa din ang pagtingin natin sa mga foreigners at mismong mga taong kasangga natin sa bansa. 🤦🏽‍♂️

So the reports that they were leaving were just smokescreens?

sana pogo na lang lahat

birgovph, please clean up your rank. Modus still rampant in tax fixation. And please, you all people should be singing the same tune.

philippinestock Priorities nyo talaga

EASE REQUIREMENTS FOR ONLINE BUSINESSES NOT POGO

maygobyernopaba

philippinestock Wowza! Goodmorning Pinas! Iba talaga pag Chinese at pera

POGOs be like:

Change is coming!!! Pero ung mga online sellers...shutaness talagaaa

Filipino’s ABS-CBN: no franchise. daming kyeme ang Congress. Filipino’s Rappler: multiple cases filed, daming kyeme ang gobyerno. Chinese POGOs: a priority kahit maraming violations, no kyeme ang gobyerno. Bayan pa ba talaga natin to?

Andali nmn mg-adjust ng BIR. Silang mga POGO n nga ang lumalabag sa batas Pinas p ang magaadjust, aba e pgkswerte nmn ng mga chekwang ire.

TANGINA TALAGA

Yet lawmakers are.looking for the smallest loopholes to find fault in abs cbn While bir makes these holes bigger for pogos to evade payment Magkano nga kinita ng gobyerno sa abs? Magkano ang hindi binayaran ng pogo? Magkano ang LAGAY?

Ay halata n talaga may under table negotiation nakakahiya bir kng local biz sobrng strict buwan buwan may LOI LOA walang patawad kng mag collection pogo bend rule kc may malaki pala under table

BIR is so strict w/ small income earners but they are now easing tax reqmnts for POGO... this is unbelievable! SUPPORT SMALL LOCAL BUSINESSES, they can also bring in taxes if u will giv them relief as well.

Ease up Singilin then LET them GO!

BIR, thanks for reminding us we're second-class citizens in our own country. Iba rin! Mga shutangina!

False news.

Sana ganito kaluwag ang BIR sa lahat ng negosyo. Dahil hindi lang makabayad ng buwis mag-aadjust kayo? Halata naman na may pinapaboran ang BIR. At ano ang masasabi ng BIR sa sinabi ni Locsin na nagbayad ang POGO under the table? Taken out of context na naman ba?

Pls investigate this risahontiveros kikopangilinan

unbelievable government
