What's included in Catch-Up Bookkeeping
We prepare every overdue GST/HST period and hand off a clean data package for late T1 or T2 filings — with advice on reducing penalties.
Every account reconciled to the statement. We also correct what was entered wrong — duplicates, misclassified expenses, balances that never closed.
We rebuild your books from bank statements, invoices and receipts — every missed month posted, categorized and brought back into a proper ledger.

You tell us the last period that was closed properly and what files exist. We scope the volume and give you a fixed quote.
1
Document Collection (Day 2–4)
You provide statements, prior returns, and CRA notices. We review and flag anything missing before reconstruction starts.

Reconstruction (Day 5–10)
Every transaction categorized and every account reconciled, period by period, until your books reach the current date.

Filing voluntarily before CRA contacts you is almost always cheaper than waiting. We'll advise whether the Voluntary Disclosures Program applies to your situation.
Bank and credit card statements are enough to reconstruct most transactions. We'll tell you exactly what's unrecoverable and how to document it for CRA. Spreadsheets and PDFs work too.
We price per month of backlog, starting at $200. The final number depends on transaction volume, how many accounts are involved, and whether prior data exists in software or only on paper.
There's no limit. We regularly reconstruct three to five years of records. The further back it goes, the more we rely on bank statements rather than software history.
