FAQ

Questions? Start here.

How does remote bookkeeping work?

We use cloud-based tools and a defined workflow for sharing documents, communicating questions, reconciling accounts, and delivering financial information.

Can you help if my books are behind?

Yes. Catch-up and cleanup work is designed to bring outstanding periods and accounts current before establishing an ongoing monthly process.

Do you prepare income tax returns?

Our current focus is bookkeeping and tax-ready financial records, not income tax return preparation. We help keep your records organized for your tax professional.

Do you provide payroll support?

We can provide payroll administration support and help keep payroll-related bookkeeping organized. The scope depends on your payroll provider and business needs.
