The department may order an in-office review of a refund claimant or licensee's records in lieu of a full field audit. If an in-office review is ordered, the department shall provide all pertinent forms to the refund claimant or licensee with instructions for completion and return to the department. An in-office review does not preclude the ordering of a full field audit of the fuel user's records if discrepancies are found during the in-office review. The results of a field audit take precedence over any actions which result from the in-office review during the period being audited.
