What's Included
Books that are actually ready when your return is due
Most tax problems that show up in April were actually created in March, or the September before that, when a receipt wasn't logged or a transaction got miscategorized. Monthly bookkeeping catches those issues while they're still easy to fix, instead of leaving your preparer to reconstruct a year of transactions in a single sitting.
This service is built for Jersey City and New Jersey business owners and freelancers who want their books current every month, not just current enough to file, priced as a single fixed monthly quote rather than by the hour.
What's covered every month
- Bank and credit card reconciliation across all connected accounts
- Transaction categorization mapped to your chart of accounts
- Monthly profit & loss statement and balance sheet
- Flagging of unusual transactions or missing documentation
- Direct coordination with your tax preparer at filing time
- Support setting up or cleaning up QuickBooks Online

Common Questions
Frequently asked questions
Do you offer bookkeeping as a standalone service, or only alongside tax preparation?+
Bookkeeping can run as a standalone monthly service, or alongside our tax preparation and small business accounting services. Either way, the same team sees your books, so nothing gets re-explained at tax time.
What bookkeeping software do you work with?+
We primarily work in QuickBooks Online. If you're already using different accounting software, tell us during your consultation and we'll confirm whether we can work within it directly or recommend a transition.
How often will my books actually be updated?+
Monthly. Each month includes bank and credit card reconciliation, transaction categorization, and an updated profit and loss statement and balance sheet.
Can you clean up bookkeeping that's fallen behind?+
Yes. Catch-up and cleanup bookkeeping is common, especially before a first tax filing with us. This is typically scoped as a separate one-time project before moving to ongoing monthly service.
How much does bookkeeping cost?+
Pricing is a fixed monthly quote based on transaction volume, number of accounts, and current bookkeeping condition, not hourly billing. You'll get a number after a short review of your accounts.
