Barangay Clearance or Certificate - Facebook.com/Kataxpayer

Before you may renew your Mayor's Permit and Business License from any Local Government Unit, it is a requirement that you must first secure a Barangay Clearance or Barangay Certificate where your place of office, plant or branch is located.

However, due to graft and corruption that already reached the Barangay level, officers and employees are now using the leverage of delaying your Barangay Clearance or Barangay Certificate in order for you to come across what they want you to do that is to BRIBE them.

Katax ETM or facebook.com/EmelinoTMaestro is here to help and assist you about the thing that you have to do in order to deprive and deny these public officers and employees do their immoral intentions. First, before going to your Barangay Hall, prepare a letter-request. Second, attach thereto your previous year's Clearance, and Finally, have these two documents stamped and signed 'received' by the concerned Barangay official.

If after the seven (7) working days lapsed, and the concerned Barangay official failed to issue you a valid Barangay Clearance or Certificate, your letter-request is a valid document that must be attached to your Application for Mayor's Permit Renewal.

For your information Section 152, Republic Act No. 7160 says that THE APPLICATION FOR CLEARANCE SHALL BE ACTED UPON WITHIN SEVEN (7) WORKING DAYS FROM THE FILING THEREOF, AND IN THE EVENT THAT THE CLEARANCE IS NOT ISSUED WITHIN THE SAID PERIOD, THE CITY OR MUNICIPALITY MAY ISSUE THE SAID LICENSE OR PERMIT.

Thanks for sharing this to other local taxpayers.
