Behind on your books? You’re not alone — and it’s fixable
Falling behind on bookkeeping is the most common thing in small business. Life gets busy, a bookkeeper quits, QuickBooks turns into a mess, and suddenly it’s tax season and nothing reconciles. The longer it sits, the scarier it feels. CPA CloudBooks does this every week: we take a pile of unreconciled months, missing receipts, and miscategorized transactions and turn it back into clean, accurate, tax-ready books — usually faster than owners expect.
We serve small businesses across Washington, Oregon, and Idaho, entirely online. You give us access; we do the heavy lifting.
What catch-up & clean-up includes
Back-month reconciliations
Every bank and credit-card account reconciled for every month you’re behind, so the numbers are real.
Transaction clean-up
Miscategorized, duplicated, and uncategorized transactions fixed and properly coded.
Chart of accounts repair
A messy or bloated chart of accounts rebuilt into something clean and usable.
Prior-year financials
Accurate P&L and balance sheet for each catch-up year, ready for your tax return.
1099 & payroll cleanup
Contractor and payroll records reconciled so year-end forms are correct.
Ongoing bookkeeping
Optional monthly service so you stay current from here on out.

Frequently asked questions
I’m years behind — is that too far gone?
No. We regularly clean up multiple years of neglected books. The process is the same; it just takes a bit longer. We’ll scope it and quote a flat price up front.
How much does catch-up bookkeeping cost?
It depends on how many months you’re behind, your transaction volume, and the condition of the file. After a quick free assessment we quote a flat, all-in price so there are no surprises.
How long does it take?
Many catch-ups are done in a couple of weeks; larger, multi-year cleanups take longer. If you have a tax deadline, tell us — we prioritize accordingly.
Can you get my books ready for taxes?
Yes — that’s the most common reason clients call. We produce accurate prior-year financials so your return (or amended return) is fast and correct, and we can file it too.
Will you keep my books current afterward?
If you’d like. Most catch-up clients move onto our monthly bookkeeping so they never fall behind again.
How do I start?
