STEP 7: Start filing your tax return by clicking the File Now button on the top right of your report.

STEP 8: You have two options for how you would file your return, (A) Manual Filing or (B) eBIR Filing through Plus.

NOTE: In order for you to enable eBIR filing in Plus, you'll need to upload a scanned copy, or image of your BIR Certificate of Registration (Form 2303).

A. Manual Filing

In this process, you can view and print a copy of your tax form and be able to submit it to your designated Revenue District Office.

Click the Mark as Filed button to acknowledge that you chose Manual Filing as the method of filing this report. After that, click Ok, file this report to continue.

Please be reminded that tax returns that were filed after 9 PM will be processed the following day to provide ample time for validation and acknowledgment from the BIR.
