Frequently Asked Questions

What is virtual bookkeeping and how does it work?

Virtual bookkeeping is a remote service where bookkeepers manage a business’s financial records online rather than on-site.

They use cloud-based accounting software to record transactions, reconcile accounts, track expenses, and prepare financial reports. Businesses share documents electronically, and bookkeepers update records in real time. Communication happens through email, video calls, or messaging platforms.

Can your virtual bookkeepers work with my CPA or tax preparer?

Our virtual bookkeepers can collaborate directly with your CPA or tax preparer. They organize and maintain accurate financial records, making it easier for your CPA to handle tax planning and filings.

They can also share reports, answer questions, and provide supporting documentation as needed. This teamwork reduces errors, saves time during tax season, and helps keep your financial information consistent across all professionals involved in your business.

How do I stay compliant with IRS and Illinois Department of Revenue requirements when using offshore bookkeeping?

We will handle all of the compliance tasks for you.

We’ll collect your offshore bookkeeper’s Form W-8, track where the work is performed, and manage any required Form 1042-S filings if any work does happen inside the U.S. Because the work stays offshore, you don’t need to issue 1099s.

We also keep your records organized and ready for Illinois Department of Revenue audits, so you don’t have to manage that process yourself.

Which accounting software tools do your bookkeepers use?

Our bookkeepers use industry-standard accounting software to handle diverse financial needs. They are proficient in QuickBooks, FreshBooks, Microsoft Excel, Oracle Financials Cloud, SAP, and Sage Intacct.

This expertise allows them to manage everything from day-to-day bookkeeping to complex financial reporting.

Their familiarity with these tools helps streamline workflows, improve data accuracy, and deliver reliable insights that support better financial decision-making for your business.

Can a virtual bookkeeper in the Philippines work on Chicago business hours?

It’s no secret that the Philippines is in an entirely different time zone. That means that if you want a bookkeeper who will work during your business hours, you will need someone who is willing to do a “night shift.”

You can find such individuals through our services. You will get to speak to each candidate one-on-one before we place them with your business. This way, you will have plenty of opportunities to assess how well they will be able to work in your time zone.
