About U.S. Bank statements

U.S. Bank statements group transactions by type: Customer Deposits, Other Deposits, Card Withdrawals, Other Withdrawals and Checks Presented, with withdrawals printed with a trailing minus ("500.00-") and checks and deposit tickets often two to a line. Utilly combines every section into one dated list, signs each row by its section, skips the Balance Summary and checks the result against the Beginning and Ending Balance.

Works with U.S. Bank checking, savings and business checking statements. Layout tested: Sections by type, trailing-minus withdrawals, checks two to a line.

Section by section: what we read on a U.S. Bank statement, checks and deposit tickets, and how far back statements go →

Why QuickBooks?

QuickBooks Online can now read a PDF statement with its own AI extraction, but you review it side by side and some files get queued for manual review. QuickBooks Desktop can't read PDFs at all. A .QBO file goes into QuickBooks Online through Upload from file and into supported Desktop versions through Web Connect, and Utilly has already checked it against your statement balances. On Desktop 2023, where Web Connect stopped after May 31, 2026, use the .IIF from the same results page. For QuickBooks Online there's also a CSV in Intuit's 3-column bank upload format, with no Balance column to delete.

Prefer QuickBooks Online's own PDF upload? Here's how to upload a PDF bank statement to QuickBooks Online and check nothing was missed.

On QuickBooks Desktop, especially 2023 after bank feeds stopped, use IIF. If import says File not imported, see IIF import errors and how to fix them, or check the file first with the free IIF file checker.

FAQ

Questions

Can I convert a U.S. Bank statement PDF to QuickBooks (QBO) for free?

You can preview every statement free: we show the balance check and the first 5 transactions with no sign-up. Unlocking the full file costs one credit ($9 for 5 statements).

Can QuickBooks import a PDF bank statement directly?

QuickBooks Online can: Upload from file accepts a PDF statement and uses AI to extract it for your review. QuickBooks Desktop can't. It imports bank transactions from QBO (Web Connect) files on supported versions, or IIF files. Utilly is useful when you want a file that's already verified against the statement balances, need Desktop, or want the same data in Excel for your workpapers.

Can I get a CSV for QuickBooks Online instead of a .QBO file?

Yes. The results page has a QuickBooks Online CSV in Intuit's 3-column bank upload format: Date, Description, Amount, with MM/DD/YYYY dates, a minus sign for money out and no Balance column. Characters Intuit's upload checklist says can block an import are removed from descriptions. Upload it under Bank transactions → Link account ▾ → Upload from file. A statement with more than 1,000 transactions comes as a .zip of files that each fit Intuit's upload limit. One credit covers every format.

Is my statement stored?

No. The PDF is read in memory and never written to disk, and extracted results are deleted after 1 hour. We never use your data for AI training.

Do scanned statements work?

Not yet. PDFs downloaded from online banking are text-based and work well. Scans and phone photos need OCR, which is on the roadmap.

What if it doesn't balance?

You'll see exactly how far off it is before paying. If a paid conversion is wrong and we can't fix it, email support@version1.io for a refund.
