I left the company about 6 years ago, and was re-hired when it was purchased by the current owner. I've been re-running everything in my head and just realized something. When I came back (roughly 3 1/2 years ago now), I discussed my mileage with the part-time bookkeeper (who made this error...

My mileage between home and work was 50 miles one way.

Mileage was entered on a web application and saved in the cloud. As a former employee, my login credentials no longer work, so I can't review them. However, I have a good idea of the mileage I drove for the company, and tbh those figures are pretty close to what I would guess.

Yeah, that seems to me like the biggest question.

The independent contractor work I did for them is not relevant to the mileage reimbursement question, which is what I intended this thread to be about.

I appreciate that, cbg. I guess I'll just grab some money from this mountain of cash I'm sitting on. Wait, what? This isn't a mountain of cash, but a mountain of DEBT racked up because I had to leave a company I had a 20+ year employment history with, in such a highly-specialized position that I...

I want to make sure I'm being clear here. My question is solely about mileage expenses when I was an EMPLOYEE of the company. The side-work (essentially) I did for them immediately after is not the focus of my question, and is really independent of the problem I am asking about. I added it just...

Wait: Independent Contractor? I was never an independent contractor. I was fully an employee.

I didn't say that I paid any back. They corrected the error once they realized it and from that point on any mileage I used was compensated without error. They never ASKED me to pay any back, nor did they provide any accounting of how much overage I was paid... until weeks after I left...

Yes I was overpaid mileage, over a period of 2-3 years it turns out. Not so concerned about the contracted labor really: it's on me for not getting it in writing - that's not really what I'm asking about.

Full time employee.

What is the name of your state? California I left this company 2-3 months ago (I quit, not terminated). One of the "benefits" from this job was repayment of mileage on my personal car used for work. The bookkeeper was given mileage per day by us, and had on record our distance between home and...
