So there’s new BIR Form 1601EQ as BIR previously announced in a tax advisory. Make sure to do things right the first time. Here’s a detailed guide.
- Log in to https://efps.bir.gov.ph
- On the field “Form,” select from the dropdown list “1601EQ – Quarterly Remittance Return of Creditable Income Taxes Withheld (Expanded)”
- Select on-line
- Select applicable quarter
- Fill up the Part I – Background Information of the form:
- To complete Part II – Computation of Tax, Click ATC
- Select applicable ATC and click OK
- Input the consolidated Tax Base for the quarter and the system will automatically compute for the Tax Withheld
- Input the Remittances Made for 1st and 2nd Quarter at Lines 20 and 21.
- Input Over-remittance from Previous Quarter of the same taxable year at Line 23, if any.
- Click Validate
- Click Submit to generate filing reference number
- Print this page as support for filing. Click Proceed to Payment if you wish to pay. The system will redirect you to your bank to complete the payment.
- Submit the Quarterly Alphalist (QAP) as attachment to 1601EQ through esubmission@bir.gov.ph.

Yes, for Step 8, you have to add the withholding tax base for 3 months. The system will automatically compute for the tax withheld.

Hi Reinalyn. There are issues with eFPS. As such, eFPS taxpayers are advised to use the eBIRForms facility in filing BIR Form Nos. 1601EQ and 1601FQ and pay over-the-counter (thru cash, checks or debit) or use mobile payment (GCash) or pay using BIR Forrn 0605 in eFPS. Here’s the link to the BIR tax advisory https://www.bir.gov.ph/images/bir_files/internal_communications_1/Advisory/advisory_unavailability%201601EQ%20and%201601FQ.pdf

Hi Pat. Thanks for your question. Yes, there is. It’s called Quarterly Alphalist (QAP). Basically similar to the previous attachment to the monthly 1601E, still prepared per month but submitted altogether upon filing of 1601EQ. Please visit my post https://phtaxes.com/2018/04/30/new-bir-forms-1601eq-and-1601fq/ for a few details about QAP.

Hi Eugene. You should use BIR Form 0605 for the remittance of withholding tax for first and second months of the quarter. Please check my post https://phtaxes.com/2018/05/10/new-bir-form-no-0619e-and-0619f/.

Hi, I am trying to fill in 1601 EQ. Our rental paid was 10,000.00 pesos a month. I think our ATC code is WC 100? We always pay 500 pesos a month on the previous 0605. Our tax base on the initial registration form was 240,000.00 pesos. On the form 1601EQ section 13, it is asking for TAX BASE (consolidated for the quarter, how do we determine that please? Thank You!

Hi.
My problem is how to amend the BIR FORM 1601 EQ 2nd quarter. I filed it on time, printed the form, acknowledgment form, payment confirmation but i cant find it when i look for it in efps. Then i reviewed my documents and found out that my tax period is incorrect. I input July 31, 2018 instead of June 30, 2018. What should I do?
Thank you in advance.
