Ever stared at a Bank of America PDF statement and just wished it was in Excel?

You're not alone.

Trying to copy-paste transactions is a nightmare. It's messy, it's slow, and it never quite works.

You just want to track your spending, do your taxes, or manage your business expenses without the headache.

This guide will show you how to convert your Bank of America statement to Excel, step-by-step.

Why Bother Converting Your Bank of America Statement?

Once your transactions are in Excel, you can:

Budget properly: See exactly where your money is going.
Simplify tax time: Quickly find and categorise deductible expenses.
Track business spending: Keep your accounts in order without the manual slog.
Spot trends: See how your spending changes over time.

It’s about taking back control of your own financial data.
