Drilon reiterates appeal to DOF: Repeal or suspend erroneous BIR order raising tax on private schools
In anticipation of the incoming school year and airing fears that private schools who are already badly battered by the effects of the pandemic might be forced to pass on to the students the burden of paying for the exorbitant income tax, Senate Minority Leader Franklin M. Drilon underscored the urgency for the Department of Finance (DOF) to immediately repeal or suspend the implementation of the erroneous Bureau of Internal Revenue Regulation 5-2021 raising to 25-percent their income tax.
Drilon suggested that the Senate pass a resolution expressing the legislative intent of the Senate when it passed the CREATE Law and rejecting the patently erroneous interpretation of tax regime governing educational institutions.
