RMC No. 44-2021 amends RMC No. 76-2020 to include submission of BIR Form No. 1709 (Information Return on Transactions with Related Party) through the electronic Audited Financial Statement (eAFS) System.

Key points

  1. Where to file. Taxpayers listed in Section 2 of Revenue Regulations No. 34-2020 may file the Related Party Transactions (RPT) Form at their RDO or through the eAFS System, at their option.
  2. Manual submission. Manual filers submit the RPT Form with the Annual Income Tax Return (AITR) and attachments at the LT Division or RDO. Without tax payable, this is within fifteen (15) days from the statutory due date or electronic filing date of the AITR, whichever is later. With tax payable, it is through an Authorized Agent Bank on or before the statutory due date.
  3. Electronic filers submitting manually. They submit the hard copy to be stamped Received at the LT Division or RDO within fifteen (15) days from the statutory due date or electronic filing date of the AITR, whichever is later.

Submission is made within fifteen (15) days from the statutory due date or electronic filing date of the AITR, whichever is later.
