Heads and Asst. Heads of BIR offices identified as content owners in Annex A of
the Order shall ensure the regular and timely updating of their assigned/owned
information posted in the BIR Employees Portal.
Articles for posting in the BIR Employees Portal should be reviewed and approved
first by the respective head of office and Assistant Commissioner/Deputy Commissioner,
where necessary, in order to ensure its accuracy. It shall be the responsibility of the
Content Management System (CMS) Approvers to ensure that only pre-approved articles
are posted by their office in the BIR Employees Portal.
To be able to access the information on the BIR Employees Portal, revenue
officials and personnel should log on to the system through the login box available in the
home page of the BIR Website (www.bir.gov.ph).
For the Username, revenue personnel shall just have to type their name (as
reflected in the BIR Payroll/employee’s payslip, minus the suffix {Jr., II, III, etc.} and
apostrophe) in the space provided using the format specified in the Order. For the
Password, revenue personnel shall just have to type their 9-digit Taxpayer Identification
Number (TIN i.e. 123456789) in the space provided, then press the “Log in” button to
access the BIR Employees Portal.
The TIN-based access to the BIR Employees Portal is initially applicable to
revenue personnel that are in the BIR Payroll as of October 31, 2016. BIR employees
that are not in the Bureau’s Payroll as of said period, such as new employees who
reported starting November 2, 2016 and onwards and those who have less than five (5)
days of Vacation Leave who were removed from the BIR Payroll as of said cutoff date,
cannot, for the meantime, access the BIR Employees Portal using their TIN.
In view of the foregoing, the Chief, Personnel Division (PD) shall provide (in hard
and soft copies) to the Chief, Systems Development Division (SDD) within fifteen (15)
days from issuance of the Order a List of BIR Personnel Who Were Newly-Included in the
BIR Payroll as well as the List of BIR Personnel Who Were Separated from the Revenue
Service (due to retirement, resignation, removal and transfer to another government
office), both for the period November 1, 2016 to May 31, 2017.
Thereafter, the Chief, PD shall regularly provide (in hard and soft copies) to the
Chief, SDD the said Lists of personnel on a monthly basis (not later than every 15th day
of the month covering newly-included/separated BIR personnel from the previous month),
for inclusion/deletion in the database of BIR employees that can use the TIN-based
access to the BIR Employees Portal.
