PINALAWIG ng Department of Finance (DOF) ang deadline para sa pagbabayad ng taxes, fees, at iba pang charges na kinokolekta ng local government units (LGUs).
Ang extension ay kaugnay sa isinasaad ng Republic Act No. 11469 o ang Bayanihan to Heal as One Act, na naglalayong ayudahan ang mga Filipino na naapektuhan ng coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).
Ayon sa DOF, nagpalabas na ang ahensiya ng Department Circular (DC) No. 002-2020 noong April 23.
“The circular extended deadlines for the payment of taxes, fees, and charges of local government units (LGUs), pursuant to Section 4 (z) of RA 11469.”
“Section 4 of the circular extends the deadlines for the payment of “all local taxes, fees, and charges duly authorized and imposed by LGUs within their respective territorial jurisdictions as of 25 March 2020” to June 25.”
Nakasaad din sa section na, “the counting of the period within which to pay local taxes, fees, and charges shall likewise be suspended during the said period.”
“In the event that an LGU had already extended the deadlines prior to the effectivity of RA 11469, such deadlines shall be deemed modified with the period set forth herein. Any further extension thereof shall be authorized in accordance with the provisions of RA 7160 (Local Government Code),” ayon pa sa circular.
Nakasaad sa Section 5 ng circular na bunga ng extension, “no interest, surcharge or any form of penalty shall be applied on any local tax, fee or charge accruing on or due and demandable” during the extension period.
Gayunman, ang lahat ng naunang delinquencies ay dapat bayaran at magsisimula ang naipon na interest, penalties at surcharges matapos ang extension.
