Malolos City—The Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) Revenue District Office-25A (West Bulacan) and RDO-25B (East Bulacan) reminded taxpayers in the province to filed their 2023 annual income tax return before the April 15, 2024 deadline.

There will be no extension of the April 15 deadline, according to Romel Morente, BIR-RDO chief of East Bulacan.

Morente urged taxpayers to file their ITR as early as possible and pay the correct tax on time to prevent incurring penalties.

“I urge our Bulakenyo taxpayers to pay their taxes early to avoid the inconvenience of long queues in banks and other Revenue Payment Centers in the different cities and municipalities especially in these very hot and humid days of summer,” Morente said.

RDO-25A chief Raymund Ranchez also aired his appeal to taxpayers from the cities of Malolos and Baliwag and from the municipalities of Balagtas, Bocaue, Bulakan, Bustos, Calumpit, Guiguinto, Hagonoy, Pandi, Paombong, Plaridel and Pulilan which comprises the West Bulacan Revenue District Office to beat the April 15 deadline to avoid paying unnecessary penalties.

The East Bulacan-RDO has jurisdiction over the cities of Meycauayan and San Jose Del Monte and the towns of Angat, Doña Remedios Trinidad, Marilao, Norzagaray, Obando, San Ildefonso, San Miguel, San Rafael and Sta. Maria.

RDO-25A and RDO-25B have also their respective social media (Facebook) pages where inquiries and other instant assistance to tax filers can be obtained.

The main offices of the two RDOs in Bulacan are housed in one building along the Plaridel-Balagtas ByPass Road in Barangay Tiaong, Guiguinto, Bulacan and will be open from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. including on the two Saturdays (April 6 and 13) prior to the April 15 deadline.

Morente and assistant RDO Nina Diana Federizo encouraged Bulacan taxpayers to visit their BIR office and other Tax Tulungan Centers (TTC) that were set-up to assist taxpayers. These are located at Waltermart-Sta. Maria, SM City-Marilao and SM City-San Jose Del Monte City.

Bulacan taxpayers were encouraged to continue filing and paying their correct taxes that provide the lifeline in supporting the infrastructure and economic development of the government.
