Proposal exempting BIR from SSL submitted to Congress

The Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) has submitted to Congress a proposal exempting the bureau from the Salary Standardization Law (SSL).

“Through the support of the management committee, we already filed the proposed bill to the Congress. We understand that the Speaker of the House of Representatives is authoring the bill. You also have the Senate president supporting this bill as well,” BIR Deputy Commissioner Jesus Clint Aranas said in a press conference on Tuesday.
