Virginia UI audit response

Virginia reviews go faster when you tie each payee total to source exports and keep proof organized by payee and audit period.

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

Virginia “what’s different”

Virginia requests get easier when your totals are audit-period exact and your response is organized per payee. The goal is to eliminate “where did this number come from?” questions.

What to expect (Virginia)

  • A notice with the audit period and deadline.
  • Requests focused on wage/payment detail and supporting records.
  • Follow-ups if you provide totals without a verifiable trail back to source exports.

What to pull first (Virginia checklist)

A) Period summary

  • Audit period dates + totals summary.
  • Reporting summaries and confirmations (if available).

B) Payment trail

  • Bank/processor exports for the audit period.
  • Payee register: date, payee, amount, purpose label.

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 (deliverables, milestones, email threads)
Audit-ready tip

If you have related entities (multiple LLCs, DBA, or locations), include a one-paragraph note explaining which entity paid which payees so the reviewer doesn’t merge totals incorrectly.
