The Next Hurdle: A Step-by-Step Guide to Getting Your BIR eCAR for Inherited Land

  You’ve finally gathered the siblings, signed the Extrajudicial Settlement (EJS), and figured out the newspaper publication details. You might think the hardest part is behind you, but there is one massive gatekeeper you still have to pass before the property can officially be transferred to your names: the Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) . To change the name on a land title, the Registry of Deeds will strictly demand an eCAR (Electronic Certificate Authorizing Registration) . Think of the eCAR as your official "tax clearance" proving that the government has received its fair share of estate taxes. If your documents are disorganized, a single trip to your Revenue District Office (RDO) can quickly turn into a frustrating circle of rejections. Here is exactly how to navigate the BIR eCAR process without losing your mind—or your budget. 📋 The eCAR Document Checklist Before you step foot inside your specific RDO, make sure you have these core documents compiled neatly in a fol...

WAYS TO SETTLE AN ESTATE

-

There are three ways to settle an estate here in the Philippines. They are via the Extra Judicial Settlement, the Affidavit of Self-Adjudication, or through the Judicial Settlement of Estate.


Extra Judicial Settlement of Estate

It is the option to use when the following scenarios are present:

1. There is no last will and testament left by the decedent (owner of the estate who passed away)

2. There are several heirs and they agree to the division agreement.

3. There is  no debt left behind or has been fully paid.

For those who want to settle their estate via the Extra Judicial Settlement, please be advised that the ongoing Estate Tax Amnesty will be expiring on June 14, 2023. The amnesty is applicable for those who passed year 2017 below.  It would be a great help because you won't be required to pay interest and surcharges. Estate tax under the amnesty would be computed straight 6% of the market value of the estate at the time of death of the owner. 

For those who passed 2018 onward, estate tax computation would be based on TRAIN LAW.

Affidavit of Self-Adjudication

It is to be used when there is only one sole heir, there is no debt left behind. The sole heir will execute an affidavit,  adjudicating the whole estate to himself/herself.

Judicial Settlement of Estate

However, when heirs do not agree on how the estate will be settled, the Judicial Settlement is the  option to use. This needs court proceedings, hence services of a lawyer is needed. This option takes longer to process and costly.


Finally, it would be very convenient if relationships with co-heirs are harmonious and pleasant. This way, it would be easy to come into agreement on how the estate will be divided among heirs. 


Thank you and God bless!

LRA On-line Tracking System (LOTS) This is a very good project of the LRA. Here, we are able to track the status of our transaction with any branches of the Registry of Deeds through out the country via online. This will eliminate the hassle of calling or going to their office personally to follow up a transaction. We can do the follow up at our own pace because it is through online. This is very favorable to avoid the traffic and transportation expenses when doing personal follow up. Link to the LRA On-line Tracking System (LOTS) https://lots.lra.gov.ph/TransactionStatus / Checking if it's working I tried checking it myself to determine if it is working. I used my previous request for a certified true copy of title, and yes up to this time it us working.  You just need to select your kind of transaction, then location of the Registry of Deeds where you have a transaction, then finally, input your EPEB No. This is from your official receipt issued by the Registry of Deeds when you ...
