J.O. Tabalba & Co. is a Philippine CPA firm helping businesses organise the records and recurring work needed for BIR compliance. We agree who prepares information, reviews returns, authorises submission and arranges payment, so responsibilities are clear from the outset.
What We Help With
Requirements depend on taxpayer registration, business activity, transactions, applicable tax types and current regulations. A BIR examination or assessment is a separate engagement from routine filing support.
- Preparation of applicable VAT or percentage tax returns and supporting information
- Withholding tax returns and relevant accounting schedules
- Quarterly and annual income tax return preparation
- Review of accounting information, client confirmation and filing coordination
- Compliance calendars, filing-status monitoring and routine tax-compliance queries
Who This Is For
A small business needing help with recurring returns, a growing company building a regular accounting process, or an established corporation coordinating several tax obligations can engage us. We can work with your existing bookkeeper or internal finance team.
How the Engagement Works
- Review your registration, recent filings, accounting setup and outstanding matters
- Agree the returns in scope, document cut-offs, review process and payment responsibilities
- Prepare returns from available records, raise open items and obtain appropriate confirmation
- Coordinate submission and retain filing acknowledgements and payment information supplied by the client
What We Typically Need
Please provide your BIR registration information, recent returns and filing acknowledgements, books or trial balance, sales and purchase records, withholding certificates, and payroll information where relevant. We identify missing records before agreeing how they will be addressed.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you handle BIR compliance without bookkeeping?
Yes, when reliable accounting records are available. We first assess the information your team can supply; reconciliation or catch-up work may need a separate scope.
Can you take over from another accountant?
We review prior filings, opening balances, access arrangements and unresolved items, then agree a turnover date and responsibilities with you.
Do you support small businesses?
Yes. The engagement can focus on the recurring tax requirements relevant to your registration and operations, without adding services you do not need.
Can you assist corporations with recurring tax filings?
Yes. We agree a filing and review schedule with management or the internal finance team, taking account of the corporation's transactions and reporting requirements.
What if our records are incomplete?
Share the records and filings you have. We will identify gaps and discuss any cleanup needed before the relevant returns can be prepared reliably.
