Catch-Up Bookkeeping Services in Miami, Florida
Years behind is routine here. What matters is whether the underlying records can still be retrieved, and they usually can — we start by finding out.
- Books a lender or CPA will accept
- A defensible record if returns need amending
- One point of contact for the whole project
Trade and property businesses that have fallen behind here often carry an extra complication: transactions in more than one currency, recorded at whatever rate seemed reasonable, or converted in bulk at year end. Restating that correctly changes the reported result more than most owners expect.
What our service covers in Miami
Everything below is part of the engagement — no surprise add-ons.
Prior-year comparison rebuild
Once the periods are restated we rebuild the comparatives, so you can finally see the trend across the years that were missing.
Statement retrieval guidance
Banks hold history further back than most owners expect. We tell you exactly what to request and from whom so the reconstruction can go as far back as it needs to.
Documented change log
Every correction recorded — what it was, what it became and why — so amended returns are defensible later.
Period-by-period reconciliation
Every bank account, credit card and processor is reconciled for each period, which is where the real errors surface.
Sales tax figure preparation
We prepare the corrected sales tax figures for each backlog period and hand them to your CPA or tax preparer. We do not file the returns ourselves.
What happens after you get in touch
Only the first step needs anything from you.
Free assessment call
We look at the file together and establish the real scope — months behind, accounts involved, condition of the records. No judgment.
One fixed quote
A single flat fee for the whole project before any work starts. It does not move unless you ask us to expand the scope.
We rebuild, then hand over
The backlog is reconstructed period by period, reconciled and documented. At the end you get corrected statements, the change log and a file your CPA can work from.
Why Miami businesses choose Feather Accounting
This is a good fit if…
- You genuinely do not know how far behind you are
- You want monthly bookkeeping but need a baseline first
- Several years have gone by without a reconciliation
- Accounts have not been reconciled in a year or more
Restating across currencies
A backlog converted at a single blended rate looks tidy and can be materially wrong. Each transaction happened at a particular rate, and the difference between the rate on purchase and the rate on settlement is a real gain or loss belonging in the period it arose.
We restate using the rates that actually applied, so margin reflects what the trade produced rather than an averaging artefact.
For property businesses running several entities, the other common task is separating movements between entities from genuine expenses — a backlog nearly always has the two merged.
Questions about this service
Anything we have not covered, ask on the call — it is free and there is no follow-up sequence.
For most transactions, yes — statements cover the overwhelming majority. We flag the small number of items where the statement is not enough and tell you exactly what to look for.
