Questions

I already have a TIN. Do I need this?

No. Form 1902 is for registering for the first time. A person keeps one TIN for life, including when changing jobs.

Who fills out the employer part?

Part IV is the employer's. You can fill it in if you have the details, or leave it blank for your employer.

Is it free?

Yes. GovForms is free to use, with no sign-up.

Is my information private?

Your answers are saved only in this browser, and the PDF is made on your device. GovForms never receives them.

Is this the latest version of the form?

It uses the October 2025 (ENCS) edition, the one the BIR publishes as of our last check. Agencies can revise a form at any time, so the official BIR page is linked above.

Will the BIR accept it?

The PDF is the BIR's own template, filled in the way the form asks. GovForms is independent and not affiliated with the Bureau of Internal Revenue, so check with the office that will receive your form.
