In an exclusive interview by Mario Dumawal for ABS-CBN TV Patrol, BIR commissioner Kim Henares said that the law applies to all thus Pia should declare all her winnings when she comes home to the country.

“Ideklara niya lahat ng income niya, natanggap niya dito at sa Amerika. Tapos komputin niya kung papaano at kung ano yung tax na dapat na andito tapos i-minus nya yung binayaran niyang buwis sa Amerika. Pero lahat yan dapat dokumentado at certified true copy.” said Henares.

“Wala ho kaming karapatan, wala kaming poder na magbigay ng exemption maliban sa kung anong nakalagay sa batas. Pantay pantay ang pag-apply natin dyan. Kaya dapat ang pag-bubuwis pareho.” added the lady commissioner.
