QuickBooks and ADP are ok for those that can do the input and know the right questions to ask, but they tend to miss on personal service and helping clients get any credit they may be due. We had a number of clients we had to amend QuickBooks and ADP payroll tax returns for because they did not...

QuickBooks and ADP are ok for those that can do the input and know the right questions to ask, but they tend to miss on personal service and helping clients get any credit they may be due. We had a number of clients we had to amend QuickBooks and ADP payroll tax returns for because they did not know they could get Employee Retention Credits, and or Family medical Leave Credits. The good news was some got 10s of thousands of dollars back they did not know they were entitled to the bad news was they had to wait for refunds that would of been money already in their business if they had known at the time they were entitled to them.

We have added two additional fill time staff members (this was not easy as finding people that want to work is harder than ever.) Keeping our office open and fully staffed has meant that we are there when our clients need us and they have intern sent their friends and family. Between helping with PPP, EIDL, ERCs and general business and financial questions we need to be in the office when our clients needs us.

We ended up helping a number of clients the last time around not only with their application but also with applying for forgiveness, and while we were successful in every case we found it very interesting how each bank or financial institution we delta with used different calculations and wanted different information we are hopeful that the process will be more standardized this time around.
On another PPP2 requires a sales decrease of at least 25% over the same quarter in the prior year, for all those that don't have detailed accounting records this is going to be difficult to determine let a lone prove. Just like all the S-Corporation owners that had not taken payroll in the past were burned when it came to PPP those without good books and records may find them self's out in the cold when it comes to proving the 25% reduction.

Planning ahead for cash flow is the key to helping managing resources and staying in business during turbulent times. While we do provide bookkeeping services those services, bookkeeping is a road map to what has happened right now the most important thing we can do for our clients is to help them see the many possibilities the future holds and to plan for all of those possibilities. This includes helping them work out adjustments that may be needed in their business model and sources of capital available both short and long term. We have been providing information and assisting with applications for PPP loans, PPP forgiveness, EIDL and restructuring of current obligations along with other options. Many of our clients are shocked and confused by what is going on and need our help to move forward, protect their assets and get a handle on the changes necessary to survive.

We have been spending a lot of time answering questions and assisting with the EIDL and PPP loan programs, along with payroll tax credit programs. We have also been helping evaluate loans vs. unemployment for self employed clients. In the ever changing environment we have been doing lots of analysis and helping clients with applications, documentation and evaluating loan forgiveness requirements. It's more important that ever before that we assist our clients in evaluating and planning to continue their business and or protect their personal assets. We have also been seeing lots of new clients who have found that their correct professional either does not fully understand their choices or does not provide advice.
