REVENUE MEMORANDUM CIRCULAR NO. 30 -2004
SUBJECT: REMINDER TO ALL REGIONAL DIRECTORS AND REVENUE
DISTRICT OFFICERS OF THEIR RESPONSIBILITIES TO THE
CENTENNIAL TAXPAYERS RECOGNITION PROGRAM (CTRP)
UNDER RMO 7 2004.
TO : ALL REGIONAL DIRECTORS, REVENUE DISTRICT OFFICERS
AND OTHERS CONCERNED
The Centennial Taxpayers Recognition Program (CTRP) was launched as one of several measures to
achieve collection growth rate of 12% for calendar year 2004. Attached marked Annex A is a table
of how well the various Revenue District Officers (RDO) fared so far under the CTRP. The table
shows that only 21 out of 115 RDOs obtained voluntary payments totaling P4,395,076, for an
average of P209,289 per district. Although voluntary payment is not the main indication of the
success of the CTRP, the low voluntary payment shows we may not be succeeding. The table
likewise shows RDO 59 and RDO 43 together accounts for 46% of voluntary payments.
Attached marked Annex B is the memo of RDO 43, which ranked 8
th
in terms of number of
aspirants and 5
th
in growth of April collection. The RDO memo is being made available to give
others an idea of how to push harder on the CTRP.
In a parallel move, we have generated from our ITS database an initial list of taxpayers who have
grown their tax payments by 25% or more for taxable year 2003 compared to that of 2002, and those
taxpayers whose growth ranges for 20% to 25%.
We have prepared a template for the first group - > 25% (Annex C) and the second group 20% -
25% (Annex D) for your immediate release and follow-up for the May 30, 2004 deadline.
For the non-computerized RDOs, determine from your taxpayers who have exceeded their growth
by (1) more than 25% and (2) over 20% but less than 25%, then send them the letter, copy of the
template (Annexes C & D) for the 1st and 2
nd
group, as the case maybe.
Please put more effort behind the CTRP. We need to wipe out our cumulative deficit by our 100
th
year anniversary this August. Needless to say, the performance on the CTRP will form part of the
quantitative measurement of performance under our existing system.
Your final CTRP Accomplishment Report as of May 25, 2008 on the aspirants in accordance with
RMC 13 2004 (refer to Annex E) should be submitted not later than May 28, 2004, to the Office of
the Commissioner, Attention: ACIR Gerardo M. Flores, Jr., Executive Director, CTRP Project
either by e-mail : gerry.flores@bir.gov.ph or fax, for the June 4, 2004 Command Conference.
