UI Audit Response Guide · KY

Kentucky UI audit response

Kentucky reviews move faster when your response matches the requested reporting period and you separate services vs reimbursements in your roster.

Not legal advice. This is administrative guidance for organizing records and responding clearly.

Kentucky “what’s different”

Kentucky audits get easier when you keep your response period-accurate and your roster is cleanly labeled (especially if payees have mixed payment types). The goal is to prevent “what is this payment?” follow-ups.

What to expect (Kentucky)

  • A written request with the audit period and a deadline.
  • Requests for wage/payment detail and supporting source records.
  • Follow-ups if totals don’t tie out or payment types are mixed without explanation.

What to pull first (Kentucky checklist)

A) Period summary

  • Audit period dates + one-page totals summary.
  • Reporting summaries/confirmations (if available).

B) Payment trail

  • Bank/processor exports for the audit period.
  • A payee register with purpose labels.
  • Clear separation of services vs reimbursements (if applicable).

C) Proof per payee

  • W-9 (if applicable)
  • Invoices
  • Scope documentation (work order / SOW / engagement emails / proposal acceptance)
  • Approvals (if used)
  • Work evidence for repeat or higher-dollar payees
Audit-ready tip

If you used different payment methods (ACH + check + card), export each method separately and show how you combined them into one total.
