How to Convert a TD Bank PDF Statement to CSV or Excel
Sixty days on screen. Seven years in the statements. Almost every job worth doing falls between the two.
Sixty days is the number that matters
Most US banks give you a year or more of transaction history on screen. TD gives you sixty days, and states it plainly:
"Your most current checking, savings and money market transactions (posted within the last 60 days) are available in Online Banking on the Accounts tab… Older transactions (posted more than 60 days ago) are also available in Online Banking on the Accounts tab. Simply select the account and the Statements tab."
Read the second half carefully, because it is TD telling you the answer. Older transactions are not gone. They have moved into a different document type. What was a searchable list becomes a PDF.
Set that against statement retention of up to seven years and you have the widest structured-to-unstructured gap of any major US bank. Two months of usable data, and eighty-two months of PDFs.
Quick answer: anything older than 60 days lives in the Statements tab as a PDF. Download the months you need and convert them. There is no export that reaches further back.
What TD does and does not name
TD confirms that downloading works, and then declines to say in what format. Its help centre states that TD Bank provides access to your account information using Quicken and QuickBooks, and that with this access you are able to access your checking, savings and money market accounts and directly download balances and transaction history.
Quicken and QuickBooks are destination software, not file formats. No CSV, QFX, QBO, OFX or QIF appears on any TD US retail page. Neither does any export date range.
A figure circulates claiming TD's activity download reaches roughly the last 18 months. Nothing TD publishes supports it, and TD's own documentation describes 60 days of on-screen history. Treat it as invented until TD says otherwise.
Two naming traps. td.com/ca and "EasyWeb" are TD Canada, a different bank with different systems. "TD Business Central" and eTreasury are commercial products. A widely quoted line about only being able to export statements from desktop rather than mobile belongs to TD Business Central and should not be applied to retail.
Converting the statements (4 steps)
- Check the Accounts tab first
TD states that transactions posted within the last 60 days appear on the Accounts tab under Account History. - Go to Statements for anything older
Select the account and open the Statements tab. TD states statements issued within the past 7 years can be requested online, by phone or in person. - Download the PDFs
One per statement period, for the months you need. - Convert them
Go to reconcileiq.com/bank-statement-converter, upload the statements, verify against the statement totals, and download the CSV.
The pending transaction problem
TD makes a point worth carrying into any reconciliation: a printed bank statement does not show pending transactions, while the online and mobile dashboards usually do.
That means a converted statement will never contain pendings, by design. If your books were built from what the dashboard showed on a given day and the statement disagrees, the difference is usually items that were pending then and posted later, not an extraction error. It is the single most common false alarm when someone first reconciles converted statement data against a screenshot-era set of books.
What comes out
TD publishes a general article on reading bank statements, but it describes banks in the abstract rather than TD's own layout — its running-balance line explicitly says "some banks" include one. So this page does not state TD's column structure.
The converter returns a consistent shape regardless: one normalised sortable date column, descriptions with wrapped lines rejoined, one correctly signed amount column, and the running balance kept separate where the statement carries one.

Sixty days on screen. TD states that your most current checking, savings and money market transactions, posted within the last 60 days, are available in Online Banking on the Accounts tab, and that older transactions posted more than 60 days ago are found by selecting the account and the Statements tab. Sixty days is a much shorter window than most US banks offer.
Up to seven years, with two qualifiers TD states explicitly: online statements issued on or after April 2010, and online notices issued on or after March 2015. TD also states that a statement issued within the past 7 years can be requested online, by phone or in person.
TD confirms the capability without naming a single file format. It states that TD Bank provides access to your account information using Quicken and QuickBooks personal finance management software, and that with this access you can directly download balances and transaction history. No CSV, QFX, QBO, OFX or QIF is named on any TD US retail page we could reach.
Online Banking, then the Accounts tab, then select the account and open the Statements tab. For a paper or archived copy, TD directs you to the Customer Service tab, then Self Service, then Statement Copy.
Your first statement of up to 10 pages converts free on a new account. After that it runs on credits, with the cost shown before anything is processed. Files are uploaded and processed on our servers rather than in your browser, which is what allows scanned and photographed statements to work as well as native PDFs.
