ONBOARDING

WELCOME TO CLEARED ACCOUNTING

Now the fun begins...well, not really. We have to take care of a little business first. : )

Our onboarding process starts with us gathering information about you and your business. From there, we will set you up in our suite of cloud-based technology and provide you with the tools you will need to work closely with us.

To make this process a little easier, we created a "checklist" to keep you on track. Based on the services we are providing, some sections may not be applicable to your business.

        New Client Information Form

Thank you for completing the form. If you need to update any information provided on the form (i.e. change in address, add/update a contact, etc.), please notify us by sending an e-mail to info@clearedaccounting.com. We want to ensure our records are up to date.

        Privacy Policy

Please take a moment to read and download our privacy policy to understand how we use your data and also keep it safe.
