I am currently in grad school. In October, I drove 500 miles (250 miles each way) to interview with a company. The firm said that the mileage would be reimbursed; however they have not sent a check yet. Yesterday, I emailed the recruiter following-up regarding my remiembursement and I received a response from the accounting department saying I would recieve a check for $75. I was expecting more around $280 given the IRS deduction of $0.555/mile. Should I ask for more? I ended up not getting a job offer from this specific firm but have since accepted a job in another city.
Without including wear and tear on my car, I probably spent ~$45 on gas.
