How does an online outsourcing work?

As each practice is different, we offer three different ways for helping outsourcing service work. The first way is to work on our secure server where all documents are scanned into our secure FTP portal, downloaded and worked on by FinTax team in India, and uploaded on time back to the portal. Second process of working is through remote login using secure virtual technology like VPN/Citrix/GoTomyPC, Team Viewer etc. where our people from India will log into your system and complete the work. Third way to work is the cloud by using third party hosting server like QB Online. This simply requires login details by our team and everything is so smooth thereafter. If you need someone to walk you through the process, just get in touch with us and support staff can assist you.

I have let my books fall by the wayside and need help doing this right. Can you help me catch up with my books?

Absolutely OK for us and in fact we have helped many clients...may be over 100 so far! For most of these clients we ended doing a bit to a lot of clean up. We have seen this happening with many people who are in small business and have fallen behind as they have been getting this done from part time accountant or have been doing on their own.

We will do a comprehensive audit of your books and after we have finished you will receive a report with a detailed outline on how much time it would take and if needed, with an estimated quote and timelines.

Do I need to clean up my books before i handover these to you?

Not at all. It is not that you are the only one having messed up books as we know how busy life is some time and often compliance is not always a number one priority. We can certainly get you up to date and will have this done easier, quicker and more efficiently that it will be done by you.

So, no worries at all...whatever state your accounts are currently in, we guarantee we have seen and fixed a lot worse than these.
