With the outbreak of the COVID-19 crisis currently plaguing our country, tax collection will surely drop. Perhaps these proposals could help enhance and improve government's tax revenue and cash flows sans added burden to the Filipino people: ๐ŸŽ‡Provide a mechanism for an efficient monitoring of VAT compliance of Real Estate Developers. ๐ŸŽ‡Employ a devise for an efficient monitoring of VAT compliance of other taxpayers, whether or not engaged in real estate business but sell, transfer, or dispose of real properties subject to value-added tax. ๐ŸŽ‡Collect advance VAT on sale or other disposition of real properties under the circumstances which warrant the imposition of VAT, in the event the fair market value of such real property being ...
