Use Case: Restaurant Owner in Peoria

A family-owned restaurant in Peoria hadn’t touched their books in over 18 months. During a tax audit, they reached out to RemoteBooksOnline. Within 10 days, we fully cleaned and reconciled their books, identified over $12,000 in missed deductions, and delivered CPA-ready reports – avoiding further penalties and giving them a clean slate for the new fiscal year.

Avoid Penalties from the Illinois Department of Revenue

In Illinois, missing or incorrect filings can result in costly penalties and interest. If your records are out of date, it’s nearly impossible to calculate sales tax liability or prepare state income filings accurately.

Our catch-up service helps you:

  • File overdue reports with accurate figures
  • Avoid interest and penalties from past errors
  • Move forward with clean, reconciled books

We Serve All of Illinois

RemoteBooksOnline supports businesses in every corner of the state. Whether you’re in the city or a rural town, we can help you get caught up fast.
