Catch-up bookkeeping means bringing your financial records current by:
- Rebuilding missing transactions
- Categorizing historical data
- Reconciling accounts month-by-month
- Generating tax-ready reports
We work directly in your QuickBooks account (or help you set one up) and assign a dedicated team to clean up your books.
Real Scenarios We Handle
- 3 Months Behind: Usually due to seasonal work or switching systems.
Turnaround time: ~5 days - 6 Months Behind: Common during expansion or tax prep delays.
Turnaround time: ~7–10 days - 12+ Months Behind: Often leads to tax stress or IRS notices.
Turnaround time: ~10–15 days
