Catch-up bookkeeping
Catch-up bookkeeping for businesses behind on their books
Months or years behind? We enter and categorize the missing transactions, reconcile every account, fix the errors and hand you statements you and your CPA can rely on.
What we do
From a backlog to clean books
Work happens inside your own accounting software, so nothing is copied out.
Step 1
Assess the backlog
We look at which months and accounts are behind and agree the scope and timeline with you.
Step 2
Enter and categorize
Missing transactions are entered and categorized month by month.
Step 3
Reconcile and correct
Bank, card and loan accounts are reconciled, and duplicates, miscategorized entries and stale balances are fixed.
Step 4
Statements ready
You get up-to-date financial statements, reviewed by our CA-level director, ready for your CPA.

FAQ
Common questions
What is catch-up bookkeeping?
Bringing books that have fallen behind back up to date: entering and categorizing the missing months, reconciling bank and card accounts, and fixing errors so your statements are right again.
How long does catch-up bookkeeping take?
It depends on how many months are missing and how many transactions each month has. We look at your accounts on a free call and give you a timeline before we start.
How much does catch-up bookkeeping cost?
From $15 an hour with no setup fee. We confirm the estimate once we see the volume. See how bookkeeping prices compare.
Do you file my taxes?
No. We get the books ready and accurate. Tax returns stay with your CPA.
Can you keep my books current after the catch-up?
Yes. Many clients move straight onto monthly bookkeeping with the same team. There is no long-term contract.
How do you protect my data?
Every team member signs an NDA. Client logins are kept in a password manager, never shared in chat or email. We work inside your own accounting software rather than copying files out of it, and our managers monitor the browsers the team works in.
