Attached is a Memorandum dated January 18, 2000 from DOF
Undersecretary Solomon S. Cua citing problems encountered by the Tax
Debit Memo Division of the One-Stop Shop Inter-Agency Tax Credit and
Duty Drawback Center at the Department of Finance, as follows:

1.         Non-posting of the last transactions/payments at the back of the TCC being applied for TDM

2.         Over application of TDM

3.         Non-attachment of the page showing the last balance of the TCC

4.         Failure of the authorized officer to countersign the

All concerned shall be guided accordingly.
