- During 2020, Jackie sent her brother Junnie $2,500 via a telegraphic transfer through El Banco Prieto. The bank’s remittance clerk made a mistake and credited Junnie with $250,000 which he promptly withdrew. The bank demanded the return of the mistakenly credited excess, but Junnie refused to do so. The BIR entered the picture and investigated Junnie. Would the BIR be correct if it determines that he earned a taxable income under the facts? No, it was not her fault that the funds in excess of $2,500 were credited to him.
