Client reported paying more than they did
I submitted an invoice in 2025 that they never paid. In addition to that I had a large project that they asked me to split into two invoices. The first part they paid in December, the second part they requested I don't submit until later. Not a half up front half after completion, just please wait a few months we don't have money for this. But their accountant took my estimate and counted it towards 2025. I pointed out this several thousand dollars discrepancy and they said it was a QuickBooks issue and asked me to accept it (basically inferring they don't want to change anything.) My biggest concern is I don't have a lot of money and Im already penny pinching. I'm worried about paying my taxes and this would make my taxes even larger. I have never had this issue so I don't even know if it would count as fraud. Can someone help me understand if this is normal or just inappropriate accounting.
