What should you get from your old bookkeeper?
Everything that belongs to you. Statements matter most.
- Your accounting file, or access to it
- Any earlier bookkeeping file, even a half-finished one
- Bank and credit card statements
- Loan documents
- Receipts and invoices they were holding
- Payroll records
If some of it does not come back, start with what you have. Bank, credit card and loan statements are what we reconcile to, so they matter most. Tell us what is missing on the first call.
