Corona’s wife should have filed an ITR – Henares

INTERNAL REVENUE COMMISSIONER Kim Henares said there was no proper payment of taxes by the wife of Supreme Court Chief Justice Renato Corona for some of the other income she earned as an official of the John Hay Management Corporation.

Henares said “there was a problem” with the tax records of Cristina Corona. Henares said “there was no proper withholding of taxes” from Cristina Corona.

“Aside from her compensation, she also had a director’s fee,” Henares told the impeachment court. “She should have filed an income tax return.”

In her book “Shadow of Doubt,” journalist Marites Vitug said Cristina Corona held multiple positions at the John Hay Management Corporation, including that of chairperson, president, chief executive officer, and chief operating officer. In addition, she was also appointed as a member of the board of directors of the corporation.
