What the evidence shows

Pricing

No firm on this page publishes a monthly price. None of the 28 say they quote each client, and 27 say nothing about fees at all. A written scope with the fee and its limits is the thing to ask for on a first call.

Services and process

None of the 28 sites here mentions catch-up or cleanup work, so ask about past months directly if you're behind. Fewer write down the process: 2 of 28 describe onboarding and 3 name a reporting schedule. Nationally 24% of listed firms name a reporting schedule, so this group is below the norm.

Software and remote work

QuickBooks is the software named most, by 8 of 28 firms, ahead of QuickBooks Online 18%. 3 of 28 say they work with clients remotely, so a firm across the metro can still take you on.

Licenses and public records

Because West Virginia publishes its records as open data, the checks for this group found 14 firms with an active CPA license or permit on West Virginia's published register. Check any CPA claim yourself on the West Virginia Board of Accountancy lookup.

The ranking

The numbered firms score between 20 and 51; the median across every scored firm is 28. 9 more firms reached 70% coverage with fewer than 6 documented items, so they sit under the list as Also scored, without a number. The top of the list: Suttle & Stalnaker, PLLC (51 at 74% coverage), Rollins Cleavenger and Rollins (49 at 83% coverage) and Ovie D Gibson CPA AC (43 at 83% coverage). Charleston has the most numbered firms (3), and the list spans 9 towns in all. A high-coverage firm with a modest score isn't a weak firm. Its site simply leaves more for you to ask.

West Virginia in figures

Shares of the 28 firms listed, from accepted evidence only. A firm with no evidence for an item counts as not stating it. Median evidence coverage: 77%; median Evidence Score of the scored firms: 28.

What a bookkeeper tracks in West Virginia

General information, not tax advice. Which of these reach your business depends on its entity type, what it sells, whether it has employees and the schedule each agency assigns. Your bookkeeper keeps the records; you, or whoever your engagement letter names, file. Checked on the linked official pages on September 26, 2026.

  • Sales and use tax. Anyone who collects West Virginia sales and use tax files Form CST-200CU. The return and payment are due by the 20th of each month for the prior month. If your annual aggregate is $3,000 or less you may file quarterly, and at $600 or less annually, due by the 20th after the period ends. West Virginia Tax Division, checked Sep 26, 2026
  • Income tax withholding. Employers remit state income tax withheld from wages by the 15th of the following month. Quarterly returns are due the last day of the month after the quarter ends. If you withhold less than $600 a year, you file one annual return instead, due January 31. West Virginia Tax Division, checked Sep 26, 2026
  • Unemployment wage reports. WorkForce West Virginia expects a complete Quarterly Wage and Contribution Report from each liable employer every quarter. Reports are due April 30, July 31, October 31 and January 31. WorkForce West Virginia, checked Sep 26, 2026
  • Annual report. Most businesses registered with the Secretary of State file an annual report and pay a $25 fee between January 1 and June 30, starting the year after they registered. Missing it can bring penalties and administrative dissolution or revocation. West Virginia Secretary of State, checked Sep 26, 2026
  • The CPA title. West Virginia law bars anyone who isn't a certified public accountant, a public accountant or a qualifying out-of-state practitioner from using the title "certified public accountant" or the abbreviation "CPA". West Virginia Legislature, checked Sep 26, 2026
