Common questions and answers about our monthly bookkeeping services.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is monthly bookkeeping and why is it important?
Monthly bookkeeping involves recording and reconciling your business’s financial activity each month. It keeps your books up to date, ensures accurate reporting, and prepares you for taxes, audits, or business decisions.
What does RemoteBooksOnline’s monthly bookkeeping service include?

How quickly do I receive my monthly reports?
Typically within the first 7–10 business days of the following month. Your financials are reviewed by a CPA before they’re delivered to ensure accuracy and consistency.
How does monthly bookkeeping help with taxes?
Up-to-date books make it easy to file quarterly or annual taxes. Your accountant will receive clean, organized reports, which reduces filing errors and saves on tax prep time.
Do I still need a CPA if I use RemoteBooksOnline?
Yes. While we handle the bookkeeping, your CPA or tax preparer will still be responsible for filing your taxes. We provide the financial reports they need to do that efficiently.
Can I switch from quarterly to monthly bookkeeping?
Yes. In fact, we recommend it. Monthly bookkeeping offers more control, visibility, and financial accuracy compared to quarterly cleanups.
What if I fall behind on a month or two?
No problem. We’ll catch up on any missing months and resume monthly bookkeeping going forward. Catch-up info
Is there a long-term contract for monthly service?
No. Our services are billed month-to-month with no long-term commitment. You can upgrade, downgrade, or cancel at any time.
How do I send monthly records like bank statements?
You can securely link your bank accounts through our portal, or upload PDFs manually. We’ll handle the rest and notify you if anything’s missing.
What accounting software is used for monthly bookkeeping?
We work with QuickBooks Online, QuickBooks Desktop, and Xero — depending on your preference. We also help with transitions between platforms if needed.
