In the September Locations thread, highway star said, "I'm at the house, and what a lucky guy am I? I've been selected for an IRP audit!! Nice folks to work with, they gave me an extension so I'd have more than 2 days to get the records to them."
That got me to thinking about other people's experiences with IRP audits. They seem to vary state by state.
Diane and I have been through two. The first one required some homework and log book research to complete. After that, I developed a database that produces the required information when start and end dates are entered and the mouse is clicked. The second audit was easily and quickly completed. The audits were done by mail and amounted to completing a forum to return.
The IRP auditor wanted to know how many miles we had driven in each state over a selected time period. We track that by writing down the odometer reading each time we cross a state or provincial boundary. That information is later entered into a database which will provide information for audits as requested.
For those of you who have been through such audits, how has it worked for you? What information is requested and what did you do to provide it?
