One missed month turns into a lost quarter, then a lost year. We reopen every period, rebuild it, and close it properly — in order, without disturbing the months you already filed.

How catch-up works

Fourstagesfrom“wehaven’ttoucheditinawhile”tofiledandcurrent.

01

Backlog assessment

We map every open period, missing statement and overdue deadline, then quote a fixed scope. You know the cost and the finish date before any work starts.

02

Secure document capture

Bank feeds, card statements, receipts and invoices come in through an encrypted portal. We chase the gaps with your banks and vendors so you don't have to.

03

Month-by-month rebuild

Ledgers rebuilt in order, transactions categorised, every bank, card and merchant account reconciled, payroll and intercompany entries corrected.

04

Filings and staying current

Statements finalised to US GAAP, overdue IRS filings prepared, and a monthly close cadence set up so the backlog never comes back.

Everythingacatch-upengagementcovers.

Once you're current, the same team can carry you forward with ongoing bookkeeping or a full outsourced accounting team.

Bank and credit card reconciliation

Every account matched line by line against statements, including closed accounts and old merchant processors.

Transaction categorisation and cleanup

Miscoded entries fixed, duplicates removed, personal spending separated, and a chart of accounts that finally makes sense.

AP and AR rebuild

Open invoices and unpaid bills reconstructed and aged, so you can see what you're actually owed and what you owe.

Payroll and sales tax reconciliation

Wages, remittances and sales tax filings reconciled back to the ledger and to what was actually remitted.

Financial statement preparation

Income statement, balance sheet and cash flow for each catch-up year, prepared to US GAAP.

Whatfallingbehindactuallycosts.

Penalties compound

Late-filing penalties and interest keep accruing while the books sit unfinished, and IRS does not stop the clock for good intentions.

Financing stalls

Lenders, investors and buyers all want two to three years of clean statements. Without them, the conversation ends early.

Audit exposure grows

Gaps and estimates are exactly what reviews latch onto. Reconstructed, documented records are the best defence you can have.

You're deciding blind

Pricing, hiring and cash-flow calls made on stale numbers quietly cost more than the catch-up work itself.

An abandoned QuickBooks file, a shoebox of receipts, three years of Stripe payouts, or a spreadsheet someone stopped updating in 2023 — we work in your stack, or migrate you to a cleaner one as part of the engagement.

Catch-up accounting questions, answered.

The things clients ask before handing over years of unfinished books.

As far back as you need. We regularly rebuild ten or more years of records, working forward chronologically so each year's opening balances are correct before the next one starts.

Missing documents are normal in catch-up work. We reconstruct from bank and card statements, merchant reports and vendor portals, and we request replacements on your behalf where we can. Anything that still can't be sourced is documented so your position is defensible if IRS ever asks.

A single year with clean statements typically takes three to six weeks. Multiple years, several entities or missing records extend that — but you get a scoped timeline in writing after the assessment, before you commit.

Catch-up work is quoted as a fixed fee per period once we've seen the volume and the state of the records. There is no hourly meter running. Send us your details for a free backlog review.

Yes. Once the books are rebuilt we prepare and file the outstanding returns — Forms 1120, 1120-S, 1065 and 1040 — and deal with the IRS and your state revenue department on penalty relief where there are grounds for it.

Most clients move straight onto a monthly close so it never happens again. We hand over reconciled books, a documented chart of accounts, and a close calendar — whether you keep us on or take it back in-house.

Stop dreading the folder. Let's get you current.

Tell us roughly how far behind you are and which software the records live in. You'll get a scoped plan and a fixed price — no judgement, no hourly meter.
