Business Licenses

My mother slowly turned our over size house into apartment units - and commercial units. We live on a major avenue so there are a lot of commercial traffic in front of the house. She did not do this in one construction frenzy but stretched it out for several years. Finishing some sections first and then leasing it. So some money is coming in as rental income and we did not get buried in debt while we essentially build a new house. Yes we are still living in the property while all these are happening. Somehow we managed. 

January of every year is business license renewal. Local and National taxes for businesses are paid. Shops and offices are inspected or readied for inspection by the municipal engineers and the fire department and if your business is food then your place is visited by the sanitary department.  It used to have a dead line around the 20th. The municipal government passed a resolution extending the period of licensing up to March 31st. They also waived penalties this year for late payments. 



Our DTI name expires this year. Renewal requires my mother's identification cards, tax number and a payment of 230 php.  Our DTI name is our trade name - Erlinda Apartments. It's my mother's name and the nature of the business. Nothing that grabs you. It's business. What do you expect?

ZFS Unable to System Snapshot, bpool is Full?

I first encountered the problem after a routine update / upgrade of the system. Well there was a kernel upgrade and I have not checked how many old kernels are still left for backups in /boot. Apparently, there was a few and the partition is 85% full. Every software update included a warning because of the restriction in disk space. Also, zfs could not create snapshots. It is also full. This is not very clear to me. Snapshots were suppose to be diff copies so why would it take up a large space. Most of the snapshots are less than 2MB. Or 0MB. Another problem that popped up is the constant freezing of Rhythmbox. I don't know if the config files are corrupted. The CPU cycles from one to the next. Peaks for 5-6 seconds then on to the next CPU. This forced me to download Clementine and Audacious. But both applications do not find the zfs pool or don't show the zfs structure. Why not? My final solution is to reinstall Rhythmbox via snaps. I re-scanned the music libr

Renter's ID and Business Licensing 2023

Last year's business permit application involved an undertaking of submitting lessee list to the Barangay in order to get them ID's including one for the lessor himself. I received a letter of notification just before New Year's Day. It informed me that I might be denied renewal of permits because I did not comply with this undertaking. So the Renter's ID is a serious thing now. When I went ahead and applied for a business permit renewal at the local government office everything went well except they want my list of lessee. So I had to backtrack and go to the Barangay and submit the list. They produced the ID's and I provided the photo ID's and of course have it signed by the lessee. After that, they pointed me to the cashier to pay the taxes and permit fees which totaled php15,305.00 ($280.33) During the payment of Fire and Safety department, they reminded me to bring my fire extinguisher official receipts of payment. I can pick up my new pe
