One such activity that will impact the Inland Revenue Department is the implementation of an Online Tax Filing System [via the Electronic Governmental Integration Project (EGRIP)] that will be implemented in July 2013.

Officer in charge of the Inland Revenue Department, Adria R. Sonson, explained that this enw system will allow businesses and individuals to perform the following tasks:
** E-Registration (individuals and businesses would be able to register online and obtain a Tax Identification Number)
** E-Filing (e.g. the filing of monthly and annual tax returns online)
** E-Payments (payment of taxes online through the use of credit/debit cards or direct transfers)

The IRD looks forward to providing this 24-hour online tax system with tax registration, declarations and payments able to be conducted from any remote location. No longer will taxpayers need to come into any of the Inland Revenue Department locations to conduct these activities.

Now you can register, file and make payments online without having to come to the IRD in person! The Electronic Government Registration Integration Program, otherwise known as EGRIP makes conducting tax transactions online so much more convenient for the taxpayer who does not have the time to make the trip to one of the IRD’s locations and go through the process in person.
