General tax amnesty: To avail or not to avail?

EUNEY MARIE MATA-PEREZ

It is now clear that the proposed Tax Amnesty Act (TAA) will be passed soon. The report of the Bicameral Conference Committee which harmonized the provisions of the tax amnesty bills (House Bill Nos. 4814 and 8554 and Senate Bill No. 2059 [SB 2059]) has gotten the nod of both the Senate and the House of Representatives. Thus, the bill is in the final stages of enrollment and signature.
