Gusto + Grant Application: Complete Workflow
Preparing for grant application and using Gusto? Grant applications often require evidence of financial health, cash flow, and how previous funding was spent — typically shown through bank statements. BankScan AI bridges the gap between your bank's PDF statements and Gusto's import feature.

Import for Grant Application into Gusto
After converting your bank statements for grant application:
- Gusto doesn't import bank statements
- Use BankScan AI to convert your statements to Excel, then filter for payroll-related transactions to reconcile against Gusto's payroll reports
Common Import Issues
No direct import. Use BankScan AI data to identify and verify payroll tax deposits (941, FUTA, SUTA) appearing on your bank statement against Gusto's tax filing records.
