The filings, as files.
Three government forms, generated by the product from one bureau’s own payroll runs and personnel records, and published here exactly as they came out. Download them and open them.
Bureau of Revenue Administration is a fictional agency — 52 staff, five offices, a 60-item plantilla and a CY 2026 payroll. Nobody named in these files is a real person.
One employee’s certificate and the agency’s annual return, carrying the same two figures.
BIR Form 2316 is issued to a single employee. The 1604-C alphalist is the annual return covering all 52 of them, exported as a .DAT in the fixed-position record layout BIR’s own revenue memorandum prescribes. Both are assembled from the payslips already submitted for CY 2026, so the certificate’s two figures are the same two figures on that employee’s row of the return.

D1,Control row
C1,bir-1604c-alphalist.DAT, verbatim and wrapped. The control row totals ₱13,815,970.00 taxable and ₱1,392,197.10 withheld across 52 rows — the sum of the rows between them, one of which is the certificate above.The certificate, box for box.
The September 2021 ENCS form, with its own numbering. Item 19 is the sum of items 38 and 52, item 23 is the sum of 21 and 22, item 28 is the sum of 26 and 27, and each of those sums holds on the page. The footer records how many submitted payslips the figures were aggregated from.
Items 34 and 48
They read “13th Month Pay and Other Benefits”. That is the BIR’s own box label on the 2316, and it is the box a government agency reports the Mid-Year Bonus, the Year-End Bonus and the Cash Gift into. The form keeps the government’s words for the pay and BIR’s words for the box.
Items 35 and 37
The rice subsidy lands in De Minimis Benefits, PERA in Salaries and Other Forms of Compensation, and both are non-taxable. They total into item 38 with the contributions and the bonus, and that total is what item 20 takes off the gross. A payroll that taxes PERA gets item 21 wrong by the same amount.
Four ways to hand the same certificate over.
A 2316 goes to an employee, to a bank, to a new employer and into a 201 file, and those are not the same handover. The document protection is chosen at generation.
The document both filings are aggregated from.
A certificate and an annual return are both summaries. This is one of the documents they summarise: one employee, one month, earnings and deductions itemised. The government share is printed and held out of the total, because the agency remits it rather than the employee paying it, and a payslip that folded the two together would misstate what the employee was actually paid.
The Personal Data Sheet, all four pages of it.
CS Form 212, Revised 2026, printed from the record rather than retyped into a template. Section V carries the Item-28 monthly salary and salary-grade-step columns the revision restored, and the disclosures at Q34–40 print as answered rather than as blanks waiting for a pen.
The record below belongs to a Supervising Revenue Officer at SG-22-1 whose service starts as a Revenue Officer I at SG-11-1 in 2008. Three rows, one career, and the form is the only place an agency ever sees it whole.
The line at the foot of every file.
Each generated document carries a stamp marking it unverified until it has been diffed, field by field, against the signing agency’s own live form at pilot. The layouts here are built to the published CSC and BIR revisions; what they have not yet been is checked against the copy a particular agency actually submits, which is a different thing and is the thing a pilot settles.
The stamp comes off per agency, per form, once that diff has been run. It is on the files above.
