I couldn't be more thrilled with my Wishup VA. It took me a few weeks to get the time to organize the work to assign initially, but it's been the best business decision for me this year.

We are very pleased with the work that Wishup Virtual Assistants have delivered for us. We use Wishup to augment many aspects of our business, from research, social media to marketing. Their staff is highly educated, very responsive, and experienced. We have been using them for over 6 months and have been telling others about our experience whenever we get the chance. The value they provide is truly immense.

I never considered hiring a virtual assistant for my business but Wishup was different, my virtual assistant exceeded expectations! It is more affordable than I thought and the help she provides on a daily basis is incredible! I get more work done with my VA helping me with important tasks like email management, calendaring, bookkeeping and much more. Highly recommended for any tech founder trying to balance time and productivity.

Everything You Need to Know About Catch Up Bookkeeping Services
Frequent Asked Questions About Catch Up Bookkeeping Services
There is no set limit. Whether you're three months, one year, or several years behind, your books can still be caught up. The timeline depends on the amount of data, transaction volume, and the quality of your records.
At a minimum, you'll usually need bank statements, credit card statements, and access to your accounting software. If you have invoices, receipts, payroll records, or previous tax returns, those can help speed up the process.
Most projects take anywhere from a few days to several weeks. The exact timeline depends on how many months need to be cleaned up, the complexity of your books, and how quickly documents are shared.
Catch up bookkeeping focuses on recording transactions that were never entered into your books. Cleanup bookkeeping focuses on fixing errors in transactions that were already recorded. Most businesses that have fallen behind need a combination of both services.
That's usually one of the biggest reasons businesses seek catch up bookkeeping services. Once your books are updated and reconciled, your accountant or CPA can use the records to prepare tax filings and financial statements more efficiently.
Yes. An experienced virtual bookkeeper can review historical records, reconcile accounts, organize financial data, and prepare accurate reports remotely. As long as they have access to the necessary documents and software, the work can be done entirely online.
The cost depends on how far behind your books are, the number of accounts involved, and the complexity of your transactions. At Wishup, you can hire expert bookkeeping support starting at just $999 per month for part-time assistance and $1,799 per month for full-time support, making it a cost-effective alternative to hiring in-house.
Wishup gives you access to pre-screened bookkeeping experts who are trained on leading accounting tools and backed by a managed support team. You also get flexible plans, replacement coverage, and unlimited interviews to ensure you find the right fit for your business.
Once your books are current, you can continue working with your virtual bookkeeper for ongoing bookkeeping support. This helps you stay organized, keep your financial reports accurate, and avoid falling behind again.
