ISLAMABAD: The Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) has directed around 18 senior officers of grades BS-19-20 of Pakistan Customs Service (PCS) and Inland Revenue Service (IRS) to declare their assets for past pending years.
In this connection, the FBR has issued instructions to the field formations here on Saturday. According to the FBR, the Establishment Division has informed that a meeting of the Central Selection Board (CSB) for the promotion of Inland Revenue Service/Pakistan Customs Service from BS-20 to BS-21 and BS 49 to BS-20 posts is scheduled to be held shortly and cases for promotion shall be submitted to the Establishment Division for CSB by 01.06.2022.
It has been observed that PERs of the officers of IRS/PCS as per lists attached, who are in Promotion Zone, have not yet been received despite reminders. All BS-19 and BS-20 officers of IRS/PCS who are in promotion zone are once again requested to ensure that their PERs and Declaration of Assets up to 30.06.2021 are submitted to the Board latest by May 31, 2022 positively.

However, your cooperation in timely completion of service record is equally essential.
