UI Audit Response Playbook
Pennsylvania UI audit response
Use this as a calm checklist if you received a state UI audit or records request. The goal is simple: assemble a clean, consistent record story and reduce back-and-forth.
Not legal advice. This is administrative guidance for organizing records and responding clearly.
What to do in the first 24 hours
- Confirm the response deadline (calendar it + set a reminder).
- Create one folder for the audit (request, drafts, exports, proofs).
- List every person paid outside payroll in the audited period.
- Pull totals that reconcile: disbursements ↔ GL ↔ 1099s ↔ wage reports (if applicable).
Records typically requested
- Contracts / scope statements and any amendments
- Invoices + proof of payment (ACH, check images, statements)
- W-9s, business registrations, licenses/COIs (when relevant)
- Work evidence (deliverables, emails, project logs) to support independence
How to build a clean response packet
The goal is to reduce follow-ups by making the story consistent and easy to review.
1
Make a roster
One row per worker: name, dates, totals, purpose, proof links.
2
Attach proofs
Invoices, W-9, contract, and a couple “work evidence” artifacts.
3
Reconcile totals
Your totals should match what you reported (or clearly explain why).
