Chase Bank Statement to Excel: Step-by-Step
Chase PDF statements have a specific format that trips up most converters. This guide shows you exactly how to do it right.
JPMorgan Chase is the largest bank in the US, which means millions of people are downloading Chase PDF statements every month. Unfortunately, Chase's specific layout makes their PDFs notoriously difficult to convert into clean Excel data using standard OCR tools.
Why Chase Statements Break Normal Converters
If you've tried uploading a Chase statement to a free PDF converter, you've likely seen these errors:
- The "Split Account" Issue: Chase often puts Checking and Savings accounts inside the exact same PDF document. Generic converters mash the tables together, ruining the balances.
- Multi-line Descriptions: Chase puts the merchant name on one line, and the location data/date on the line below it. Standard tools split these into two different spreadsheet rows.
- Text Wrapping: Long descriptions spill over, disrupting the column structure.
