Bookkeeping support that fits your business
Bookkeeping cleanup
If your records have fallen behind or become difficult to rely on, we can review the books, correct errors, reconcile key accounts, and prepare them for year-end.
Cleanup work may include:
- Bank and credit card reconciliations
- Review of uncategorized transactions
- Correction of duplicate or incorrect entries
- Shareholder account cleanup
- Payroll and source deduction reconciliations
- GST/HST account review
- Year-end adjustment entries
Ongoing bookkeeping support
Some clients need occasional help rather than full monthly bookkeeping.
We can assist with entries, reconciliations, payroll matters, GST/HST filings, and other accounting tasks where the records need attention during the year.
Year-end preparation
Organized records reduce delays and follow-up questions at corporate year-end.
Before the financial statements and T2 return are prepared, we review the bookkeeping for missing entries, unreconciled accounts, shareholder transactions, capital purchases, and other items that may affect the tax filings.
- New QuickBooks Online file setup
- Chart of accounts design
- Bookkeeping cleanup and reconciliations
- GST/HST and payroll setup
- Year-end adjustment entries
- Reporting for incorporated business owners
Bookkeeping for SR&ED claims
Businesses claiming SR&ED benefit from bookkeeping that separates eligible project costs from ordinary operating expenses.
We can help organize the bookkeeping and supporting records so payroll, contractor costs, materials, and other SR&ED-related expenditures are easier to identify at claim time.
This does not replace technical project documentation, but it can make the financial side of the claim more efficient and easier to support.
Who this service is for
Bookkeeping support is intended for:
- Existing corporate accounting and tax clients
- Incorporated consultants and IT contractors
- Businesses needing bookkeeping cleanup before year-end
- Clients using QuickBooks Online
- Companies preparing SR&ED claims
- Owner-managed businesses that need occasional accounting support
We do not generally take on standalone, high-volume bookkeeping engagements.
How the process works
1. Review the current records
We assess the bookkeeping file, reconciliations, outstanding issues, and the type of support required.
2. Identify the cleanup or ongoing work
We outline the records that need correction, completion, or regular attention.
3. Complete the accounting work
We prepare the entries, reconciliations, filings, or cleanup required.
4. Prepare for year-end
The books are reviewed so the corporate financial statements and tax return can be completed with fewer delays.
Bookkeeping that supports better year-end work
The goal is not bookkeeping for its own sake. It is to maintain records that support accurate tax filings, clearer decisions, and a smoother corporate year-end.
