CM 201 - RECONCILIATION OF COLLECTION THROUGH AAB AND OTC

Reconciliation of Collection through Authorized Agent Banks (AABs) Over-the-counter (OTC) 

The BSC-CRDC Reconciliation Inquiry is a facility in the CBR System that allows the user to monitor tax revenue collections and remittances together with the discrepancies that may exist between them. This serves as a reconciliation tool, primarily for use by the RDOs/LTDOs/LTS and the Revenue Accounting Division (RAD). It assists them in identifying those AABs with discrepancies between the reported BCS-A and CRDCs for a particular collection period. It also provides assistance in evaluating the collection and remittance performance of the AABs.

BCS-CRDC Reconciliation

The LRDPQAD/LTDO/RDO shall:

  1. Access the CBR BCS-CRDC Reconciliation Inquiry Screen;
  2. Validate collections in the CBR System and ensure that the BCS amount tallies with the CRDC (Annex 200-1.1);
  3. Request RAD to verify accuracy of the posted CRDC data and monitor RAD’s response to reconciliation queries;
  4. Prepares and submit report on collection reconciliation issues on the CRDC discrepancies to the Regional Collection Division/LTS; and
  5. Prepare and submit Report on Frequently Erring Banks to the CPD through the Regional Collection Division/LTS.

The RAD shall:

  1. Receive request from LTDPQAD/LTDO/RDO for verification of posted CRDC data;
  2. Coordinate with AAB-HO in reported discrepancies (Annex 200-1.2);
  3. Monitor AAB-HO response to reconciliation issues raised. In case the AAB-HO fails to respond, report erring banks to the CPD for the imposition of appropriate penalties for non-compliance;
  4. Receive AAB-HO response to reported discrepancies. In case of AAB-HO error, require the amendment of the CRDC and the remittance of collection; compute the corresponding penalties for late remittance (Annex 200-1.3) or the refund, if there is over remittance; and
  5. Notify LTDPQAD/LTDO/RDO on the accuracy of the posted CRDC and the amendment to the CRDC (Annexes 200-1.4 and 200-1.5), if any, based on the report(s) submitted by the AAB-HO.

The LTDPQAD/LTDO/RDO shall:

  1. Determine the possible causes of discrepancy between BCS and CRDC immediately upon receipt of confirmation by RAD on the accuracy of the posted CRDC data;
  2. Require AAB to submit amended CRDC or BCS, in case the discrepancy is due to wrong encoding of RDO code in the CRDC or the BCS;
  3. Coordinate with the concerned AAB branch, in case of erroneously encoded/reported collection date (e.g. one or more BCS were not included by the AAB-HO as part of the remittances for a particular collection date or collection was reported as the remittance for a different collection date), and inform RAD of such error for imposition of appropriate penalties;
  4. Require the AAB branch to remit the unremitted collections, in case of under-remittance of collections, and inform RAD of such omission for immediate issuance of demand notice to AAB-HO for remittance of the collection and imposition of appropriate penalties; and
  5. Require AAB branch to transmit an amended BCS, in case of over-remittance of collections, and inform the said AAB to request for refund if the amendment of the BCS was made after the lapse of the AAB’s float period.

  2. Reconcile the information in the aforementioned reports with the BIR collection data, and coordinate with the AAB-HO, BSP and BTr on noted discrepancies (Annex 200-1.9), if any;
  3. Monitor responses by the AAB-HO/BSP/BTr to reconciliation issues, if any;
  4. Request the AAB-HO/BSP/BTr to make the necessary adjustments in their respective reports/records, in case the discrepancy is attributable to them;
  5. Effect the adjustment in the collection through the BIR JEV, in case discrepancy is attributable to the BIR, and record the same in eNGAS; and
  6. Inform the RDO of the adjustments made, if any, for inclusion in the BIR Form No. 12.09 collection reports [Refer to CM 101.2 Payment through AAB-Collection Reporting (RDO)].
