Historical basis.
In the year 2003, the former President of the Republic of the Philippines, Ms. Gloria Macapagal Arroyo, publicly declared that the 45,000 Letters of Authority are deemed ‘cancelled and ineffective’. That was the first time that the taxpaying public became aware of the actual number of being audit-investigated by the Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR).
If that numbers shall only be increased therefrom by ten (10) percent yearly. Then, at present, the numbers of taxpayer being subjected to multiple stresses and mental anguish may reach, more or less, to 100,000. And for a moment, let you and me pause and think for a while that each taxpayer having a Letter of Authority would only BRIBE a revenue officer of not less than P400,000 (average), then, the wasted money that went directly into the wallets of CORRUPT BIR OFFICIALS may reach to P400,000,000,000.
This didn’t happen overnight but in the span of a century (100 years).
You can’t FLY away from this stigma but your choice to be its FINANCIER or FISCALIZER would definitely FAVOUR your FAMILY.
Legal basis.
According to the Philippine Supreme Court, it is your duty to refute or make noise whenever an act or attack had been perpetuated against you. Failure to do so shall make even the revenue officer’s void actions to be true and correct. Notwithstanding, that you are being required to condemn approaches of errant and enterprising revenue officers, the Court obliges you to give them another chance by way of informing them their mistakes and misgivings so that with such opportunity, they may correct and rectify the same.
In tax case-handling business, having more friends and relatives within the BIR is no longer the best selling preposition for lawyers and CPAs or a business advantage for taxpayers. In fact, the ‘WHO YOU KNOW’ slogan is fast fading. Nowadays, more and more taxpayers are choosing those ‘WHO KNEW WHAT THEY KNOW ABOUT TAXATION.’ In that view, Katax is sharing to you his three (3) so effective SECRETS, (1) Pay attention to the BIR regulations, (2) Advertise your knowledge in taxation, and (3) Apply it wisely, correctly and on time (acronym, ‘PAA’). Furthermore, this is his professional advise to his many students and clients, ‘DON’T AND NEVER ELEVATE A REVENUE OFFICER FROM BEING A SERVANT TO A SAINT’
If you are feeling guilty, shameful of self and embarrassed because you always invite revenue officers to a very fancy lunch/dinner, provide substantial discount and freebies, give gifts even if there is no major occasion, or bribe for you are so lazy to know the truth and the rules, don’t be because there is always a way out. Change your behaviour toward them and you change your life.
In line thereto, Katax is requesting you to hear what the famous Dog Whisperer, Mr. Cesar Milan once said, ‘BECAUSE DOGS ARE HAPPY TO BE TREATED AS DOGS, DON’T TREAT THEM AS HUMAN BEINGS.’ Applying the same doctrine to your current situation, ‘BECAUSE REVENUE OFFICERS ARE SO CONTENTED AND COMFORTABLE TO BE PUBLIC SERVANTS, DON’T TREAT THEM LIKE YOUR MANAGERS, INVESTORS, CREDITORS AND VERY IMPORTANT PEOPLE.’
See the picture.
Finally, another SECRET of Katax is to deny and deprive these revenue officers from seeing, hearing, holding and having any type of managerial reports and financial disclosures because these are their tools to confuse and abuse you.
