Catch-Up Bookkeeping on the Mornington Peninsula

Months behind? Shoebox of receipts? We get overdue and messy books back on track — reconciled, accurate and with your BAS lodgements up to date — without judgement.

WHAT'S INCLUDED

From Behind to Back on Track

Falling behind on the books happens to good businesses all the time. We work through the backlog methodically, fix what needs fixing and hand you a clean set of books you can actually rely on.

Backlog Bank Reconciliations

Months or years of transactions reconciled against your bank feeds.

Bill & Receipt Clean-Up

Duplicate, stale and unreadable bills cleared and matched to payments.

Overdue BAS Lodgements

Outstanding BAS brought up to date and lodged in order by our registered BAS agents.

Coding Corrections

Miscoded transactions fixed so your reports finally make sense.

Payroll & Super Catch-Up

Missed STP, super or payroll records brought into line.

ATO Liaison

We talk to the ATO about any debts or payment plans that come with the catch-up.

SMART CHOICES

Getting Back on Track Is Easier Than You Think

Whatever got you behind, the fix follows the same steady path. Here are the situations we see most often.

01

Months Behind After a Busy Season

When a busy season pushes the books aside, the backlog grows fast. We work through every month in order until your file is reconciled and current.

02

Years of Books, One Clean File

When books have been left for a long stretch, we work through them period by period so each BAS can be lodged accurately and in order.

03

A Fresh Start With Your Accountant

Once your books are caught up, your accountant can get on with your tax return — no more back and forth over missing information.

OUR PROCESS

How Catch-Up Bookkeeping Works

01

Assess

We look at how far behind you are, what records exist and what is overdue with the ATO.

02

Plan

We give you a clear plan and quote for getting everything up to date.

03

Catch Up

We reconcile, correct and lodge period by period until you are fully current.

04

Keep You Current

We can keep your books up to date from here, so you never fall behind again.

Local Help, No Judgement

Our team on Main Street, Mornington, has helped plenty of Peninsula businesses dig out from a bookkeeping backlog. We have seen it all, and we are here to help — not to judge.

Once you are caught up, our ongoing bookkeeping services in Mornington keep you there.

Behind With the ATO Too?

Overdue books often come with overdue lodgements or ATO debt. As registered BAS agents, we lodge your outstanding statements and help you sort out an ATO payment plan if you need one.

Clean Books for Tax Time

Caught-up books mean your accountant has what they need to finalise your returns. We work directly with them so everything lines up.

CATCH-UP FAQS

Catch-Up Bookkeeping Questions, Answered

There is no such thing. Whether you are a few months or a few years behind, we can work through it.

No. We work with what you have — bank statements, invoices and whatever records exist — and fill the gaps where we can.

Overdue lodgements can attract penalties, but getting up to date is always the best step. We lodge your outstanding statements and can help you talk to the ATO about any debt.

It depends on how many periods are involved and the state of your records. We will give you a realistic timeframe once we have assessed your books.

Yes. Most clients move straight onto one of our fixed monthly packages so they never fall behind again.

Britt has been an integral part of getting our Xero up to date, initially we were running our own payroll and processing our bills, it was cumbersome and took too much time. Double balance has allowed us to step back and grow our business. Highly recommend

Exceptional Bookkeeping Service - Couldn't Be Happier! I've been working with the double balance team for over 5 years now, and I can honestly say they've been a game-changer for my business. From day one, they've kept me completely up-to-date on all my financial matters and have taken so much stress off my shoulders. What I appreciate most is their reliability and attention to detail. They're always on top of deadlines, provide clear and timely reports, and make tax season a breeze instead of the nightmare it used to be. The peace of mind they've given me over these 5+ years is invaluable. I can focus on growing my business knowing that my books are in expert hands. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to any business owner.
