Our Process
Clear. No surprises. No jargon.
Three steps to getting your business properly compliant, without firing your bookkeeper or starting from scratch.
1. We start with an honest assessment
We review your books, BIR filings, and compliance history. We tell you exactly where you're exposed, what it costs to fix, and what we'd charge. No commitment required.
2. We build your compliance layer
Your bookkeeper keeps recording. We make sure what she records is legally categorized, correctly filed with the BIR, and audit-ready. Both functions work together, not against each other.
3. You stay protected, year after year
Quarterly check-ins. Plain-language reports you can actually read. We handle deadlines, represent you before the BIR if needed, and keep you prepared for when the audit letter arrives.
Why Clients Choose Us
Trading CompaniesImport BusinessesConstruction FirmsFamily BusinessesGrowing SMEsService Businesses Love Working With Us
We're the mid-tier CPA firm built for the ₱10M–₱100M Philippine business. The option most business owners didn't know existed.
We represent you before the BIR
If you receive a Letter of Authority or deficiency assessment, we respond, negotiate, and attend hearings on your behalf. Your bookkeeper legally cannot do this. We can.
We work WITH your bookkeeper
You don't have to let her go. We're the compliance layer on top. We make sure what she records is legally airtight, audit-ready, and correctly filed. Both functions stay.
10-year lookback protection
The BIR can audit up to 10 years back. We don't just file for this year. We review your history and address anything that could become a liability before the audit letter arrives.
Priced for the mid-market
Monthly engagements starting at ₱5,000–₱15,000 depending on your size and volume. A single BIR deficiency assessment can exceed ₱200,000. The math works in your favor.
The Partners
The people behind your compliance
Limjap Limjap & Company was founded in 2009 by CPAs who came from the corporate side. They knew what mid-sized Philippine businesses actually needed: not just form filing, but real advisory from people who've sat across the table from the BIR.
Erlinda Limjap, CPA, MBA
Managing Partner & Founder
20 years across Sarmiento Group, EGI Group, and Unilab before founding this firm in 2009. She built Limjap Limjap & Company for the Philippine SME that's outgrown its bookkeeper.

Client Stories
What business owners say after working with us
"I thought my bookkeeper was handling everything. Limjap Limjap reviewed our books and found unclaimed import VAT credits we had been missing for three years. They recovered more than their fees in the first engagement."
"We received a BIR Letter of Authority and I had no idea what to do. Erlinda's team took over completely. They responded, negotiated, and settled it for far less than I expected. I didn't have to deal with a single BIR officer."
"My company crossed ₱25M in revenue and I still had the same setup I had at ₱5M. Limjap Limjap restructured our entire compliance system in 3 months. For the first time, I actually understand my own financial reports."
FAQ
Questions we hear before every first call
No, and we'd encourage you not to. Your bookkeeper records transactions. We make sure those records are legally compliant, properly categorized, and correctly filed with the BIR. We work alongside her, not instead of her. You keep your bookkeeper. You get a CPA firm on top.
Yes, and it's not optional. Under Philippine law, any corporation grossing over ₱3M annually is required to have CPA-audited financial statements filed with the BIR and SEC. At ₱15M, you're well above that threshold. Most business owners at your revenue level find this out when a deficiency notice arrives.
Monthly engagements typically start at ₱5,000–₱15,000 depending on your industry, transaction volume, and current compliance state. For context: a single BIR deficiency assessment with late penalties can exceed ₱200,000. One penalty-free year more than covers years of professional fees.
You're not alone. It's fixable. We start with a confidential compliance review, identify what's at risk, quantify your exposure, and give you a clear path to getting clean. The BIR has settlement programs, and we know how to use them. We don't judge. We fix.
Yes. Unlike a bookkeeper, a CPA firm is legally authorized to represent you before the BIR. We respond to Letters of Authority, negotiate deficiency assessments, and attend hearings on your behalf. This is one of the most valuable things we do for clients, and something your current bookkeeper cannot legally do.
The BIR collected a record ₱2.85 trillion in 2024. The RAFT program identified ₱25.5 billion in ghost corporation liabilities. Enforcement is intensifying, not slowing. The BIR can also audit up to 10 years back. "Nothing bad has happened yet" is survivorship bias, not safety. The question isn't whether you'll get audited. It's whether you'll be ready.
