At Chicago Bookkeeping Solutions, we specialize in nonprofit financial operations, from bookkeeping and grant tracking to annual reporting and Form 990 filing. But we also serve service-based small businesses that value clarity, compliance, and strategic support.
Our monthly bookkeeping is the foundation. From there, we offer optional services like bill pay, custom reporting, tax prep, and budgeting, tailored to your entity type and goals.
Every client starts with monthly bookkeeping. That includes reconciliations, categorized transactions, monthly reports, and ongoing support. Whether you’re a nonprofit preparing for your next grant or a consultant tracking business income, accurate books are non-negotiable.
We manage outgoing bills and incoming payments using secure workflows. Ideal for nonprofits with reimbursements or businesses that need more structure.
We support all organizational tax preparation and filings, both Federal and State.
Forms: 990, IL AG990, 1020(s), 1065, 1040.
Need a funder-ready budget or multi-scenario forecast? We build financial models that work in real life.
Board packets, grant budgets, multi-program reports — whatever you need to stay transparent and informed.
Your organization’s funding strategy deserves the same attention as your finances. That’s why we offer nonprofit-specific services designed to support compliance, fundraising, and donor engagement:
Nonprofits need more than spreadsheets and scattered logins. We help you implement and manage a connected financial tech stack that supports your mission, simplifies compliance, and saves time.
Our core platforms, such as QuickBooks Online, Melio, Bloomerang and your secure client portal, are tailored to your specific needs and scaled to your operations. Most tools can be managed directly by your team, but we offer bundled pricing and full-service support to keep everything running smoothly.
Why It Matters:
The right tech stack helps your organization stay audit-ready, improve reporting accuracy, and reduce administrative bottlenecks. It’s not just about automation, it’s about giving you the infrastructure to grow.
