Receiving a notice from the New Jersey Division of Taxation is stressful enough. If your bookkeeping is also months or years behind, it can be difficult to know whether the notice is correct, what records support the figures in your books, or what information your CPA or tax professional needs.
OneBooks helps New Jersey businesses catch up and clean up QuickBooks Online so their CPA, tax preparer, enrolled agent, attorney, or other qualified tax professional has organized financial records to work from.

Call 888-665-5085A state tax notice does not automatically mean your bookkeeping is wrong. The New Jersey Division of Taxation explains that some notices request supporting documents or additional information. But when the books are incomplete, unreconciled, or inaccurate, responding can become much harder.
New Jersey businesses may encounter notices such as a Notice of Adjustment, Statement of Account, or notices involving sales tax, employer withholding, or other state tax accounts. The exact meaning and response requirements depend on the notice, so your tax professional should review it.
Common bookkeeping problems we see include:
Our job is not to interpret the tax notice or provide legal or tax representation. Our job is to get the bookkeeping into condition so your CPA, tax preparer, enrolled agent, attorney, or other qualified tax professional can work from reliable records.
Depending on the condition of your books, our catch-up and cleanup work may include:
Identify the tax period, type of tax, amount or information requested, and response date.
They should determine what the notice means, whether a response is required, and what tax or legal position should be taken.
If the bookkeeping is behind, tell your tax professional immediately.
Bank statements, credit-card statements, payroll reports, sales-tax filings, loan statements, merchant-processor reports, prior returns, and other requested records may be needed.
OneBooks can rebuild and reconcile the accounting records so the numbers can be reviewed by your tax professional.

The New Jersey Division of Taxation provides an Online Notice Response Service (NJ ONRS) for eligible notices. The State also provides a Received a Notice resource explaining common notice situations. Follow the instructions on your specific notice, and let your tax professional determine the appropriate response method and substance.

OneBooks provides bookkeeping services. We do not provide legal advice, tax representation, or determine how you should respond to a tax notice. We can catch up and clean up the books and coordinate bookkeeping information with your CPA or other qualified tax professional.
Send the notice to your tax professional promptly. If the affected bookkeeping period is incomplete, tell them. They can identify the records they need while the bookkeeping cleanup proceeds.
That is a common catch-up situation. We can review multiple years of QuickBooks activity, bank and credit-card statements, and other records to define the project.
We can correct bookkeeping classifications and reconcile accounting records when adequate source documentation is available. Your tax professional should determine tax filings, amendments, liabilities, penalties, and any response to the taxing authority.
It can be helpful for us to understand the period and bookkeeping issue involved, but you should redact sensitive personal information that we do not need. Your CPA or tax professional should receive the complete notice.
Yes. With your authorization, we can coordinate on bookkeeping questions and provide corrected financial reports or schedules relevant to the cleanup.
If your New Jersey business has received a tax notice and your QuickBooks records are incomplete, send the notice to your tax professional, gather the requested records, and start bringing the books current.
OneBooks can handle the bookkeeping catch-up and cleanup so your CPA or tax professional has organized financial records to work from.
No obligation. 100% confidential.
