Why isn’t the filing period that I need in the filing period list?


If you are trying to file an older period, use the “all available” link in the green filing period bar to display all filing periods for the last three years. You cannot file prescribed period returns in LaTAP. Also note that LaTAP will only allow you to file for the filing periods associated with the taxpayer’s registered filing frequency. If you are a quarterly filer trying to file more frequently (or vice versa) you should contact LDR to determine if you can change your filing frequency.
