UI Audit Response Guide · TX
Texas UI audit response
Texas reviews are often quarter-based—keep summaries clean and reconciled.
Not legal advice. This is administrative guidance for organizing records and responding clearly.
Texas “what’s different” (quarter-based clarity)
Texas audits often move faster when you summarize by quarter and your payment trail supports your totals. Keep it simple, verifiable, and payee-organized.
What to expect (Texas)
- A written request tied to a defined time period (often quarter-based).
- Requests for payment detail and supporting source records.
- Follow-ups when totals don’t reconcile or proof isn’t organized by payee.
What to pull first (Texas checklist)
A) Reporting summary
- Quarter-by-quarter totals summary for the audit period.
- Internal exports/reports you used to reconcile.
B) Payment trail
- Bank statements and/or processor exports for the period.
- Check/ACH details if used.
C) Proof per payee
- W-9 (if applicable)
- Invoices
- Scope documentation (work order / engagement emails / accepted proposal / SOW)
- Approvals (if used)
- Work evidence for repeat or higher-dollar payees
Audit-ready tip
If you used agencies or staffing vendors, clarify whether the payee is an entity providing multiple individuals. That prevents “one worker” assumptions.
