💛 YOUR BUSINESS MATTERS.
🩵 SO DOES MY WORK.

I give my best to every client—with dedication, expertise, and genuine care.

But let’s be honest: not everyone values your effort, respects your time, or honors their payment commitments.

Professionalism means giving your best.

Self-respect means knowing your worth. ✨

To my valued clients who trust, appreciate, and pay fairly for my services—thank you! 🙏💓

You make this journey worthwhile. 🙏💛

📍A gentle reminder:

Quality service deserves quality respect.

📢 TAX ADVISORY

| RR NO. 7-2026

Good day, taxpayers!

The Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) has issued Revenue Regulations No. 07-2026, amending certain provisions of RR No. 07-10 concerning the sharing of the financial burden of senior citizen discounts and the corresponding tax deduction.

📌 Key points to remember:

* Establishes guidelines for sharing the cost of the mandatory 20% senior citizen discount among entities in the pharmaceutical supply chain.
* Only businesses that actually granted the discount may claim the corresponding deduction, subject to applicable conditions.
* Under a documented burden-sharing agreement, each claimant may deduct only its corresponding share of the discount.

For complete details, please refer to the full text of RR No. 7-2026. Click the link below 👇🏻

💡 KNOWLEDGE NUGGET OF THE DAY 🇵🇭

Understanding Expanded Withholding Tax (EWT)

📍Did you know?
Expanded Withholding Tax (EWT) is a creditable withholding tax prescribed under Section 57(B) of the National Internal Revenue Code (NIRC).

Here is a quick breakdown of how it works and why it matters to your business:

⚙️ How It Works:
The payor (withholding agent) deducts a specific percentage from income payments before disbursing the remaining balance to the payee.

💳 Creditable Nature:
EWT serves as an advance payment of income tax. The payee can claim this withheld amount as a credit against their quarterly or annual income tax liability.

📄 Official Documentation:
The payor MUST issue BIR Form 2307 (Certificate of Creditable Tax Withheld at Source) as formal proof of the tax withheld.

Staying informed keeps your business compliant and tax-ready! 💼📊
