Not long ago, the Bureau of Internal Revenue announced that they will implement a firmer tax collection policy. They will review all the taxpayers’ records to see those who are not paying the right amount of taxes. From then they will give out appropriate punishment especially to tax evaders, which could be in a form or penalty or surcharges or imprisonment.

The only problem, there is not much choices on how to pay taxes. Of course, not all people have the luxury to visit the nearest office. Some will have to take a time off from work just to file their tax documents. Another problem is that the process takes too long. I am not sure what causes it probably due to lazy staff or they just don’t have a systematic approach.

Whatever their reason is, I still think having a file taxes online set-up, like those in the US, could greatly help. Just like my daughter who spends at least two days to finish everything. The mostly spend on falling-in line and waiting for the name to be called. If they just employ online system, it would be very beneficial to busy taxpayers. That way those individuals don’t need to leave their jobs for a day or two.
