| The computerization of the Bureau of Internal Revenue Region 12 in Bacolod City will be introduced this week as part of the agency’s Nationwide Rollout of Computerized Systems.
BIR 12 Regional Director Rodita Galanto announced at the recent launching of the Tax Campaign 2008 that the roll-out schedule is on March 27 and 28.
NRCS is being implemented by the BIR to extend the use of its Integrated Tax System across its remaining non-computerized Revenue District Offices. It aims to build a comprehensive taxpayer database that will be used to support collection and enforcement efforts.
ITS has four front-end systems which include the Registration or REG System; Collections and Bank Reconciliation or CBR System; Returns Processing System or RPS; and Taxpayer Accounting System or TAS.
In Negros and Panay, front-end computerized systems were already rolled out in RDO 79 in Dumaguete City; RDO 71 in Kalibo, Aklan; RDO 72 in Roxas City; RDO in San Jose, Antique; RDO 74 in Iloilo City; and Revenue Region 11 in Iloilo City.
Galanto said BIR Region 12 has P110 million in accounts receivable and their goal is to collect 50 percent of the amount this year.
The region’s tax collection goal for 2008 is P4 billion. In 2007, it only collected P3.4 billion, 9.94 percent short of its target of P3.7 billion. The 3.4 billion, however, is 13.2 percent higher than its P3 billion collection in 2006.*NLG
