Bookkeeping & Payroll Services

Accurate books. On-time payroll. Fewer tax-season headaches.

WHAT WE OFFER

  • Monthly Bookkeeping

    Bookkeeping We reconcile every bank, credit-card, and payment-processor feed, classify each transaction, and deliver an easy-to-read profit & loss, balance sheet, and cash-flow statement by the 10th of every month. With real-time numbers you can spot cash leaks, plan equipment purchases, and prove eligibility for deductions like the Foreign Tax Credit or Rental Property Tax Benefits before deadlines loom.

  • Bookkeeping Cleanup

    Behind on your books? Whether it’s a quarter or three years of messy ledgers, we dig in, rebuild transaction histories, and flag deductible expenses you may have missed—AirBnB occupancy taxes, digital nomad income, or foreign currency gains included. You end up with audit-ready records synced to your current accounting platform.

  • Monthly Payroll

    From pay-run calculation to direct deposit and year-end Form W-2/1099 filings, we manage every step. We handle state and federal payroll taxes, remit withholdings on schedule, and generate employer reports that dovetail with Form 5471 or Expatriate Tax filings where required.

  • Tax-Ready Reporting

    Each quarter you receive a custom “Tax Snapshot” highlighting cumulative net profit, estimated liabilities, and deductible categories—think Rental Property Gain Tax or Foreign Earned Income Exclusion thresholds. Your tax preparer (or ours) can file faster because source documents are already organized.

  • Compliance & Advisory

    Laws change—Tax Filing Deadline US extensions, Foreign Tax Credit Limits, new payroll regulations for remote staff in multiple domicile states. We monitor updates, adjust your workflows, and advise you proactively so you never scramble at the eleventh hour.
