Tax evasion case vs Pacquiao mulledStop Engaging in Media War, Aquino Tells Boxing Hero

Manila, Philippines Already staggered by the

freezing of his bank deposits, world boxing

sensation and Sarangani Rep. Emmanuel

Manny Pacquiao may yet face another blow

after the Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR)

hinted yesterday at filing tax evasion charges

against him for alleged misdeclaration of his

income.

Even if he declared his income in US in 2009,

may kaso pa rin siya. I have not filed a taxevasion case against him. I am just collecting

[taxes], BIR Commissioner Kim Jacinto

Henares said yesterday in a press conference.

The BIR confirmed that it is now weighing its

options on whether to file criminal charges

against Pacquiao, especially since the boxing

champion has failed and continues to ignore the

agencys request for him to submit his US Internal Revenue Service (IRS) records during the

past several years.

BIR Deputy Commissioner Estella Sales said in that same press conference that the BIR is

studying the filing of [tax evasion] case.

Stop Media War

President Benigno S. Aquino III, dismayed by Pacquiaos cavalier attitude against the BIR,

called on the boxing hero to stop engaging in media war and just address his tax obligations

before the court.

Aquino also denied that the government was harassing Pacquiao over his P2.2-billion tax case

and instead unleashed a flurry of criticisms against the lawmaker.

Bakit siya iha-harass? Saan ang logic non? Aquino asked in a press conference in his visit to

Bohol.

(Why would we harass him? Where is the logic there?)

Court Will Decide

If he did right, then Im sure he will be able to prove that he did right, and therefore there is no

issue. So the way to settle it is to answer all of these queries by the BIR and not to engage in a

BIR bent on pursuing taxevasion case vs Jeane

media war, added Aquino, who was among throngs of Filipinos who watched Pacquiaos recent

victory in Macau.

The President told Pacquiao that the media will not decide who is right or wrong. It will be

our courts eventually, if it gets to that, who will decide, he added.

In the BIR press conference, Henares said that the tax agency has given Pacquiao much leeway

to comply with their requirements. She, however, declined to elaborate on BIRs future actions

in connection with Pacquiaos tax woes.

We have given him as much leeway as we can. I dont want to talk about what could happen inthe future. As far as Im concerned, we are just collecting taxes, please pay us so we dont have to

go to the next decision point, she added.

P1.5 B Gross Income In 2008

BIR records show that Pacquiao pocketed a P1.5 billion gross income in 2008 from his fights

abroad, his share in income from pay-per-view cable services that aired his fights, and his

endorsements of various brands.

Documents from the BIR showed Pacquiao was the countrys top individual taxpayer in 2008

with a tax due of P125.063 million.

P340 M 2008 Income Tax

On a 32-percent income tax rate, the boxer was obligated to pay P340 million in income tax tothe BIR, on top of the P120 million he remitted to the US government. The BIR, however, said

that the boxing sensation failed to pay the P340 million.

Under the Tax Code, he said, the BIR shall impose surcharge and interest on unpaid tax

liabilities.

In Pacquiaos case, the BIR imposed a 50-percent surcharge, or P170 million, on basic income

tax liability and a cumulative interest of P250 million for the four years that the boxer failed to

pay the liability.

P760 M 2008 Unpaid Taxes

Ortiz said the BIR imposed the 50-percent surcharge as it believed that fraud was involved

because of deliberate withholding of some of his earnings. As a result, Pacquiaos total unpaidtax liabilities amounted to P760 million.

P2 B Gross Income in 2009

For 2009, Pacquiaos gross income was placed higher at about P2 billion, based on which the

BIR is running after P688 million in basic income tax liability. Pacquiao, however, only declared

P7,410,221 as his income in 2009.

Worse, the eight-division champ, however, did not report any income tax payment to the US

government and as a result, the BIR had nothing to deduct from the income tax liability, he

added.

P1.4 B Unpaid Taxes In 2009

The BIR, thus, imposed the surcharge of P344 million and the cumulative interest of P373million for the three years that the liability had remained unpaid. Pacquiaos total unpaid tax

liabilities for 2009 including the basic income tax plus the surcharges and interest stand at

P1.4 billion and his combined unpaid tax liabilities for 2008 and 2009 amounted to nearly P2.2

billion.

Henares said the BIR placed Pacquiao under investigation in late 2010 and early 2011, after the

peoples champ dropped out of the top 100 individual taxpayers.

US Income Undeclared

Ito yung problema ng 2009 ITR (income tax return) niya, wala siyang i-dineklarang American

income, i-dineklara lang niya yung Philippine source income at under declared pa, she said in a

press briefing.

According to Chapter VII, Sec. 34 of the National Internal Revenue Code, a Filipino citizen can

avail himself of credit against tax for taxes of foreign countries if the taxpayer signifies in his

return his desire to have the benefits.

Ang batas natin, kung Pilipino ka at residente ka ng Pilipinas, kailangan i-deklara mo lahat ng

income mo saan mang lupalop ng mundo mo kinita, Henares said.

Binigyan namin siya ng dalawang taong pagkakataon pero kung sa tutuusin, too late na yan,

Henares said.

over Brandon Rios, Pacquiao faces tax woes after the Bureau of Internal Revenue ordered his bank accounts

freeze. (AFP FILE PHOTO / Dale de la Rey)

Mansions, Car Not Included

Meanwhile, the BIR said Pacquiaos mansions and flashy cars are not covered by the seizure

warrant it issued.

Henares said only Pacquiaos bank deposits are the subject of the garnishment relative to theP2.2 billion civil suit filed against him before the Court of Tax Appeals. She was reacting to news

reports that the BIR has already attached Pacquiaos real estate properties via a Warrant of

Distraint and Levy (WDL).

The Warrant of Garnishment (WG) and WDL are administrative legal remedies applied by the

BIR to keep the assets of delinquent taxpayers until their tax debts are settled, with the former

covering bank accounts and share of stocks and the other referring to real properties.

Henares said she will not withdraw the freeze order until Pacquiao presents the original or

certified true copy of tax returns he filed with the IRS relative to the cash prizes he received and

taxes he paid for his four boxing bouts in 2008 and 2009.

Under the bilateral tax treaty agreement between Manila and Washington, Pacquiaos tax

payments in the US can be deducted from his income tax return (ITR) filed with the BIR, thuspreventing double taxation.

BIR insiders said Pacquiaos estimated P2.2-billion deficiency tax assessment might be wiped

out if he can prove his claim that he had paid the IRS some P400 million for the two-year period,

plus deduction from allowable expenses, including transportation, hotels, and the salary of his

staff. (With a report from Jun Ramirez)

aha, mabuti sinabi mo na nasa US ka. matanong nga kita. sinubukan mo na

bumili ng bahay dyan? alam mo ba na isa sa mga requirements ng bank ay IRS

certified ITR na padala mismo ng IRS? kasi hndi pwede ung basta resibo lang

ng ITR mo ang ipakita na dokumento. Pag pumasok ka sa university, ganun din

ang hihingin sayo, certified transcript mula sa university sa pinas na pinag

aralan mo. Pero direct na galing sa university ang dokumento. Pero tama ka

siguro tungkol sa politics. mas bulok ang sistema sa pinas kaysa sa US.

Not really. If you are right then stay behind and prove it. Running away will just

send the wrong signals that he is running away from justice and he will be a

wanted man forever.

Or you can stay behind and prove THAT YOU CAN BE Millionaire or

billionaire too just like the other government officials with almost no

efforts at all (THRU NGO, ETC.) . . .baka maging president ka pa tulad

Based on this info from BIR, against Pacquiao's crying foul and media attack, people

may now see who is right or wrong. Obviously, Pacquiao and his camp of trusted

accountant and battery of lawyers, including Bob Arum, are remiss in their obligations

to document the Pacman's ITR. I see it as a failure on the latter to substantiate his

claim for a much lower tax in the Philippines. It also suggests a possible mis- or

under-declaration of his 2009 income which is disputed by the BIR. Two years of

leeway to explain and document his ITR is long enough for Pacquiao to do, but his

accountant and lawyers did not do their job. It's quite easy for him to get a certified

true copy of IRS income tax, contrary to his statement that it was not possible to do

so. He only pays a small amount and requests IRS to forward the certified copy to

BIR. It is quite simple to do, no hassle. Unless Bob Arum and Manny have something

to hide that they don't want the public to scrutinize, let alone to alert the IRS that

something is also fishy in the IRS Form 1040 NR that he filed. This is always subject to

tax audit in the future. Bob Arum's retort that Henares herself, or that a government to

government can secure it, is out of tune. This goes against the US law on privacy that

does not authorize any entity to do it, unless upon order of the court - which becomes

more complicated. Besides, the simple rule is that the burden of proof lies on the

person to do the documentation of his/her tax claim, not the collecting agency.

Clearly, Pacquiao and Arum are making statements that deflect the real issue. A

detailed analysis on this is also found in Randy David's most recent article in the

Inquirer. Wish Pacquiao's men will read it and interpret it for him, not as a boxer

idolized by millions of Filipinos but as a lawmaker elected by the people who must

show obedience to rules. Emotions have no place in this game, which now plays out

for Pacquiao's possible political advantage in the wrong direction.

Excellent Bro! You hit the Bullseye!! You are absolutely correct, some

Kababayans are letting their emotions alone without getting the real picture

and story beyond the show! Then they just bounce back that there was political

motives etc. and ask why other rich tax evading tsinoys as Lucio Tan et al is

not getting the cudgels without knowing that LUcio Tan has a long standing

Civil Cases of Tax Evasion in the court sinse the time of Pres. Ramos.

Luie Garcia

Very well said! We travel for work too and wherever country we go as expats,

we always have our US income and tax records available to the host country.

Why would it be different for him? Their statements that US tax records is

something that BIR should get from US IRS is ridiculous and undermines the

intelligence of anybody who has knowledge of how these things work. That's

tantamount to lying in my opinion.

john

siguro wala namang silang tinago kasi bakit tinuruan pa sila ni bob Arum at

Manny kung paano makukuha ang tax record ni Manny sa pag log-on lang sa

website ng IRS. Ito rin kasi si Henares at mga tauhan niya masyadungmayabang,sabihin ba naman na hindi raw nila trabaho yon. Kung duda ka sa

binigay ni Manny na Tax record bakit di muna lang tingnan sa Website ng

IRS,Hindi na kailangan yong certiified thru copy. Kung anong makita doon sa

website eyon na yon. Kung sa Pilipinas baka puede ka pang mag-duda baka

gawa lang yon sa Recto.

Alex

Ok, pero yung sinabi ni Pacquiao at Arum ay hindi pwede gawin. Meron

US privacy law na hindi ka basta makapasok sa IRS website at kunin

ang ITR ni Pacquiao. Kelangan sya mismo ang mag apply at mg

authorize matapos mag fill up ng IRS Form 4056T at magbayad ng $50.Yun ang proceso.

karlblaxa

sa palagay niyo ba, kung di tama ang pagbabayad ni manny sa tax due nya sa U.S eh

di siya hahabulin. U.S pa eh ang lupit ng IRS magmonitor ng tax payment, may

nabalitan na ba kayo ng u.s tax evasion to anyone including american, bihira...dahil

kung mali ang declaration mo, mabilis pa sa alas dose eh may sulat ka na galing sa

kanila. common, i am ofw too for 12 years, at tax exempt tayo. nakakalungkot, pero

mas ginusto ko na dito na lang mamalagi sa ibang bansa kaysa sa PINAS....sa bulok

na sistema ng gobyerno..kung may karapatan lang akong ikulong ang mga lintik na

iyan eh baka wala ng maiwan na nasa gobyerno......

6

g par

Naniniwala naman kami na nagbayad sya wala naman question dun kabayan

ang isyu lng e nasaan ang pinagbayaran mo ipakita mo sa BIR kailangan lng

ung Certtified true copy nung IRS hindi ung resibo na ipinapakita nya sa TV.

Simple lng kabayan kung maipapakita nya ung Certified copy tapos ang isyu.

all happy. Ang kaso pinalalabas nya na pinag-iinitan sya ng gobyerno andun

nako tama ka kabayan bulok ang sistema ng gobyerno pero kung dadagdag

pa ang isang Congressman lalu ng mabubulok ang gobyerno natin. 2 years ang

ibinigay sayo para e submit ung hinihingi nila pero wala kang ginawa anong

gagawin ng BIR pabayaan ka na lng? Di dumagdag ka na naman sa bulok.

Hinahangaan natin si Manny bilang isa sa pinaka magaling na Boxer sa buongmundo pero bilang Mambabatas baka pwedeng ibigay mo na lng sa iba. Dun

sa mas nakakaintindi sa paggawa ng Batas.

Clear as water Madam Commissioner! Thank you for serving the best interest of the

Filipino People!!

I admired Manny too much for being a kind hearted, good honest person and a

Pilipino Boxing icon. But I deeply pity him so much. He was "cooked on his own lard"

and misguided by crooked and leech people that surrounds him, Pilipinos and

Americans alike. Tsk! Tsk! Tsk! Poor Manny! Must wake-up before its too late! Mustkeep and manage the blessings of GOD carefully. Everyday is not Christmas Day!

Talk about income tax.. how about janet nafoolish on stolen money?

Now there's a case for you and all those other a...h... that were part of the pot..far

more money there than anything that manny might owe..

Mario Tungol Eufemio

Our country stinks of corruption. This is a clear case of harassment. Where did the

government get the figure? Why can't the Government get real big fish like the Henry

Sy's of BDO and SM, Lucio Tan, Manny Pangilinan. the Lopezes, the Ayala's who

pays questionable amount but no one complaint, ? Why Pacman? Or a powerful figure

wants to destroy the Pacman? Sometimes the law was being use and utilize as a

powerful weapon to destroy a man's credibility by those person in power. Has

anybody has a better explanation for this?

3

Luie Garcia

That's the point! How much money did he actually make? We don't know until

he presents his tax returns from IRS. How hard is that? Everybody who worked

in the US has this return, why can't he show it? I think he's hiding something.

1 2

Manolo F. De Los Reyes

Based on the BIR pronouncements, Pacman's subject tax returns appear to be

substantially incorrect. Blame it all to a bad advice from his tax lawyer and CPA.

These supposed professionals can be on the hook even if Pacman is not convicted.

The foreign tax credit for any citizen or resident taxpayer is not covered by any US-RP

tax treaty. It is provided for in the RP Internal Revenue Code to prevent double

taxation. The foreign income tax paid or its equivalent can either be taken as an

itemized deduction or a tax credit. Compute it both ways and see which one produces

the most benefit.

Sobra na ang kabulukan nga gobyerno natin, saan ka makakakita ng mga taong may

mataas na pinagaralan (senador, congressman, etc) na magnanakaw ng pera ng

bayan thru pekeng projects na tinatawag na NGO?

Dapat ngang umalis ka na talaga sa Pilipinas. Punta ka U.S. embassy at mag apply

para maging immigrant dito. Maganda ang kinabukasan ng mga anak mo kung dito

sila magaaral at mahusay ang hospital (with Pilipino doctors and nurses, you will feel

at home kahit malayo sa atin).. Punta ka sa Texas, MALAWAK ANG LUPAIN DITO AT

MURA PA..

Sabi nila: BIR records show that Pacquiao pocketed a P1.5 billion gross income in

2008 from his fights abroad, his share in income from pay-per-view cable services

that aired his fights, and his endorsements of various brands.Bakit di nila habulin ang

pocketed PDAF na garapal na nakaw ng mga senador/congressman, etc? MGA

UNDECLARED INCOME YAN, KAYA DAPAT REVIEWHIN NILA ANG MAGA INCOME

TAX PAPERS NG MGA YAN.

ED Sal Del

Was it Clint Eastwood who said in one of his movies " Go ahead , make my

day!"...Why is the " Bureau of Internal Robbery " only " mulling" to file tax evasion?

Why not do it?

Craven--hesitant or full of it?..It is not surprising because the much maligned agency -

has at the helm , is the Scrooge-Henares who stole Christmas from the nation

.Singularly she sucked all the oxygen from the celebratory mood of the country when

Pacquaio won against Rios.

Guest It just goes to show that MR. PACMAN thinks he doesnt have to pay taxes because

he thinks he is a true christian. When see him hes always praying for what to be the

part of the list of corrupt poltictcians here. Mr. PACMAN your no better than the rest of

the PORK BARREL CREW. When will this country do anything about corruption. Its a

DAM shame corruption is so big here I guess this is why ITS MORE FUN IN THE

PHILIPPINES IF HAVE MONEY YOU CAN GET AWAY WITH ANYTHING JUST LIKE

EX-PRESIDENT GMA GETS AWAY WITH MASS MURDER. When will this NATION

WAKE TO THE WORLD OF THE REAL DEAL.

pacquiao is one of them politicians. therefore he is one of them looters. I don't think

he understands the gravity of this issue. Everybody (at least the middle and upper

classes) pay taxes and you're not an exemption. Ignorance is no excuse. Pay up and

shut up and loose the stupid grin.

They should stop harassing Pacman. Kim Henares is EVIL personified. That is the

truth.

Evdokim Vezhlivtsev

About 3 years ago I met local Thai MP, who shown me pictures of him and Mannyduring his visit to Bangkok. He also told me that Manny was desperately looking for

"money parking" or "investment" as he had huge amounts of money he didn't want to

show back home. As it turns there were no chances to park his millions in Thailand, so

his next stop was shady Casinos in Cambodia.

Reuters show him in disaster affected provinces in Philippines, smiling and waiving,

while he is avoiding to pay taxes which will go to exactly the same people he smiles.

What a dirty shame!

Taxpayers like us including Manny should demand the revert of a general lifestyle

check of all executive agencies/bureau specially the BIR. Start with Comm. Henares. I

am disgruntled with the character and style of this person. Jacinto-Henares has no

mandate from a good and judicious number of Filipinos . Her proverbial statement is "

ginagawa lang and nasa batas" ? It is not adequate and relatable to make such self-

serving and egotistical statement. The point is - TAMA ba ang ginagawa mo na

pagpapatupad sa sinasabi mong batas ? You are not the only one who knows

Philippine Tax laws and its statutory amalgamates and integral laws. I have beenevenhandedly observing both sides in this issue and Henares is off-putting the entire

situation. Jacinto-Henares is offensively disgusting the taxpaying public- the very

lifeblood- of this government.

Rep. Manny must congregate his entire staff at the House to re-visit the Tax laws and

the malevolent delegated "right" of the BIR Chair to issue revenue regulations. Even

the most develop country viz the mainly underdeveloped ones, do not treat their

taxpayers with the Jacinto-Henares hounding and suppressive approach and

behaviour .Virtually, there may be no more wiling, - notwistanding , able "bloods" to

enliven nor stimiulate this governenment bacause of this disgusting treatment and

wei hted self-servin inter ertation of the Laws. Heneras as most of us ma

Sa tingin ko lang ha, posibleng kasalanan ito ng kanyang abogado at accountant kung

pacman has a good lawyer and is willing to defend his tax case. DEFENDING and

WINNING the tax case are 2 different issues. remember the old saying? " DO NOT

ay, "Ako ay OFW." Iyon lamang ang maaring paliwanag kung bakit ang dineklarang

kita niya noong 2009 ay 50M piso lang.

buddy

ang OFW kasi iyong filipino na doon nakatira sa bansa kung saan sya nagwo-

work, halimbawa 2 years ang contract mo sa dubai don ka nakatira. Si Manny

naman dito sya nakatira sa Pinas lumalabas lang siya ng bansa kung saan siyamay laban, kaya hindi sya considered na OFW.

The OFW's income tax posture is different from that of Pacman's in that OFW's

foreign earned income is exempt from RP taxation under the "Foreign Earned

Income Exclusion" from taxes statute. Almost always, there is a limit on the

amount of the exclusion. Besides being too rich a sum of money to easily

surpass the maximum exclusion, professional boxers' prizes are not deemed

earned income for purposes of the Foreign Earned Income Exclusion statute.

This is true whether or not the host foreign country imposes income taxes.

However, the OFW's incomes other than the foreign-earned is still taxable. The

idea is to export unemployment and to raise foreign exchange for RP by

providing worker tax incentives. Since foreign earned income is tax exempt,

foreign income tax credit doesn't come into play. If Pacman is allowed (for the

sake of discussion) to use the "Foreign Earned Income Exclusion", it won't be

advisable to do so because the exclusion is limited in amount compared with

his gross income plus he can no longer make use of the foreign tax credit. You

can't have both.
