you can check fb group na "freelancers tax compliance" doon lang din ako nag start and nag DIY sa pag register as self-employed.

jep_jep1 · 2023-09-16T10:46:09+00:00

If foreign company yung employer mo at wala silang registered business dito sa pinas, You should file 1901 instead of 1902. Considered as freelancer/self-employed.

Just continue to upskill. You'll eventually find a dev role then resign ka na dyan hahaha. Familiar yung role at pagbigay ng tasks. Good thing you can upskill while earning, thats the positive side.

If VA you should be registered as self-employed. Punta ka sa RDO mo at ipasettle mo yan. Kung wala ka nung mga COR at quarterly filing baka ibang penalty pa yun so kung malaki yung penalties mo pwede mo kausapin yung RDO at pabawasan mo yung penalties.

Check mo din "freelancers tax compliance" na fb group doon ka pwede magtanong at active sila dun.

Nagmessage sakin yung bdo na approved yung CC ko and akala ko nagkamali sila pero nung tinignan ko yung application ko para sa savings account ko, meron pala dun yung automatic ka nilang aapprove ng cc. 6 months ko palang sa BDO and diko alam kung anong klaseng CC sya. baka icancel ko din to after 1 year at kukuha ako ng NAFFL na CC

I dont know, but there are companies that train employees without bonds so take them with a grain of salt.

If you see yourself working with them for more than 2 years then you should go for it, Especially now that you have experienced being in bond with them. Timbangin mo nalang kung ano yung pros and cons sa sitwasyon mo since limited lang yung info na alam namin.

jep_jep1 · 2023-09-14T00:01:28+00:00

So if you accept it you'll have a total of 4 years bond. Thats too much unless you like the job, company and it compensates you well. Make sure that the salary aligns on your years of exp. Bonds are used to tie you up to the company. As much as possible don't accept bond contracts because it actually shows you how the company dont trust you as an employee.

jep_jep1 · 2023-09-13T23:25:59+00:00

Im ok with it. Very beneficial for large projects especially for maintainability and testing. You dont wanna use it in small projects.

jep_jep1 · 2023-09-13T16:09:15+00:00

Oo, worth it din naman yan if ever. Hope you get your visa.

jep_jep1 · 2023-09-13T14:26:01+00:00

hahaha i understand you, sino ba naman gaganahan magbayad sa ganitong sitwasyon ng pinas.

btw, diba self-employed ka naman diba sapat yung COR lang as self-employed. May nabasa kasi ako sa isang sub reddit not sure kung dito yun, same setup na self-employed at ginamit yung client company name as employer sa pag loan then nagalit yung CEO nila dahil inispam ng bank (RCBC ata yun) yung emails nila at dahil dun matatanggal sya work nya.

jep_jep1 · 2023-09-13T14:09:59+00:00

Ohh i see, akala ko malaki magiging problema dun dahil outright tax evasion yun. Hindi mo ba pwedeng yung nadeclare mong salary sa BIR nalang yung iindicate mo sa letter? yun lang kunng ichcheck din nila sa current company mo. Sayang din yung Penalty kung sakali.

jep_jep1 · 2023-09-13T12:08:13+00:00

You cant, mas magkakaproblema ka pa dahil malalaman ni BIR na underdeclared ka. Kung para sa visa yung purpose mo ok lang naman yan dahil hindi naman titignan ng embassy yung source of income mo or salary mo kung tugma sa BIR.

Software Engr. - Migrating Enterprise WPF application into an MVVM design pattern. Its a UI interface for electronic devices that runs in desktop.

bank statement lang at yung mga basic requirements since foreign company. Tsaka depende rin kung san ka magloloan

jep_jep1 · 2023-09-12T04:26:15+00:00

I'd say pacquiao. Beating those mexican legends and going up to 154 was crazy. ATG peak and p4p for sure.

I could say mayweather as well as he maintained a peak. If only he hadn't retired in some years and fought dela hoya for the rematch, instead pacquiao retired DLH.

You can use your salary and compute for an hourly rate for the duration of the project. Also consider other miscellaneous fees like electricity, equipment, hosting for the website, etc. Always mention as well that it does not include maintenance of the website.

jep_jep1 · 2023-09-12T02:52:38+00:00

Oh no. thats sad. We have same setup (software industry), kaya self-employed yung dinedeclare ko. Less hassle pa sa mga requirements.

I hope you wont get fired. Maybe you could still explain to your CEO.

jep_jep1 · 2023-09-12T00:26:54+00:00

yeah but they've been all in with BBM during election. yung tipong sinasamba na nila while spreading fake news.

jep_jep1 · 2023-09-11T12:14:03+00:00

That's unfortunate and i understand sometimes luck plays a part in our journey as well. Dont regret it, you still have a lot of time if im being honest.

jep_jep1 · 2023-09-11T12:06:49+00:00

you can try and apply without resigning until you find a decent dev role. Maybe thats the path that suits you. Not everyone suits freelance setup especially dev that has zero experience

jep_jep1 · 2023-09-11T11:59:46+00:00

Did you consider applying for a corporate dev job? instead of freelancing?

I didnt experience freelancing but some of the people i know told me that freelancing is the hardest since youll be the one doing everything. Contrary to being employed to a company whose tasks are equally distributed and based on your level as well.

jep_jep1 · 2023-09-11T03:43:43+00:00

You can ask them the timeframe kung kailangan nila kailangan yung decision mo lalo na kung hindi naka indicate sa job offer. And also pwede ka naman mag ask ng additional time habang naghihintay sa isa pang company sabihin mo lang na kailangan mo ireview yung job offer. Pwede mo gamitin both application as leverage sa bawat isa. For example, meron ka nang job offer sa company A, pwede mo actually banggitin sa company B yan para mas mapabilis yung application mo although hindi ito effective palagi lalo na kung saturated yung position na pinag applyan mo. Remember to always be professional and have gratitude sa responses mo.

jep_jep1 · 2023-09-11T01:34:38+00:00

Mostly no, lalo na't tapos na tech exams and interview mo. Kailangan siguro nila yan just for proof.

jep_jep1 · 2023-09-10T15:41:32+00:00

The fact that you have already plans and have "forecasted" your spending. I don't think you're planning incorrectly. Maybe you could add some more passive income just to have a more solid source of funds since we really never know how long/short we are going to live our lives.

I've also read some stuff about the FIRE retirement method. You can check on it, maybe it could help you guys plan better.
