Question VIII
In the examination conducted by the revenue officials against the corporate taxpayer in 2010, the BIR issued a final assessment notice and demand letter which states: "It is requested that the above deficiency tax be paid immediately upon receipt hereof, inclusive of penalties incident to delinquency. This is our final decision based on investigation. If you disagree, you may appeal this final decision within thirty (30) days from receipt hereof, otherwise said deficiency tax assessment shall become final, executory and demandable." The assessment was immediately appealed by the taxpayer to the Court of Tax Appeals, without filing its protest against the assessment and without a denial thereof by the BIR. If you were the judge, would your deny the petition for review filed by the taxpayer and consider the case as prematurely filed? Explain your answer
