Frequently Asked Questions
- What format do auditors prefer for bank statement documentation?
- Most auditors prefer Excel or CSV format because they can filter, sort, and reconcile transactions without manual re-entry. Export your bank statements to Excel — each row should have: Date, Description, Debit Amount, Credit Amount, and Running Balance. This format matches the standard bank statement layout auditors expect.
- How far back do I need bank statements for an IRS audit?
- The IRS typically audits the past 3 years, but can go back 6 years for substantial underreporting. For a standard Schedule C or corporate tax audit, export 3 years of business bank statements (36 monthly PDFs) to Excel. Archive each year in a separate folder with monthly files clearly labeled.
