-CABARROGUIS, Quirino, April 26 (PIA) -- Internal revenue collection in this province for the month of March reached P13,843,789.04, higher by 19.53% in its P11,581,592.23 collection during the same quarter last 2011.
+CABARROGUIS, Quirino, April 29 (PIA) -- Tribal rites, legal rights. The National Statistics Office here has scheduled training for tribal leaders who are solemnizing wedding ceremonies at the Nagtipunan town hall on May 15.
-Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) Revenue District No. 16 assistant revenue district officer Vivian Tarectecan has attributed the increase to their continuous tax campaigns to the continued cooperation of the taxpayers, tax agents and the collaborative efforts of the revenue officials to pursue its thrusts for a strong republic.
+Cherry Grace Agustin, provincial statistics officer said the training is a pre-requisite in issuing the tribal leaders certificate of registration as official and accredited solemnizing officers.
-But Tarectecan stressed that they still need to work overtime as they are still short of P671,210.96 to be able to meet their goal of P14,515,000.00.
+“This is to ensure the validity of the marriage among Indigenous People couples so that they could avail services and benefits due to them,” Agustin said adding that most IPs have too often been denied benefits and services only because they lack basic documents such as certificates of birth or marriage.
-In their collection performance report, it stated that there was a decrease in the collection of percentage tax because the Quirino Provincial Irrigation Office (QPIO) was already merged to the Addalam River Irrigation Project, and there were no more contracts allocated to QPIO.
+She likewise said they can also enjoy benefits due them as members of the Social Security System (SSS), Philippine Health Insurance Corporation (or PhilHealth) and Home Development Mutual Fund or Pag-Ibig.
-For the month of April, the BIR-RDO collection has reached to P11.8 million, still short of P1.2 million to meet their P14 million goal.
+Agustin added that marriage of IPs officiated by their tribal leaders are considered acceptable, they still need documents such as marriage contract, birth certificates of children as documents for all legal transactions.
-Tarectecan, however, expressed optimism that they will be able to meet their goal as they are still receiving tax payments from late filers. (TCB-PIA Quirino)
+She explained that any marriage that is solemnized by officiating officials, who is not registered, is considered null and void and can be declared illegal.
+“NSO is the only office that is authorized to process and approve the certificate of registration to the solemnizing officers,” Agustin said. (TCB-PIA2, Quirino)
