Usually, an employer will request that you record your mileage when performing business functions. The mileage is then multiplied by the current IRS standard mileage rate and an expense check is issued on payday. The current IRS standard mileage rate (2007) is 48.5 cents per mile driven for business purposes. This is, of course, optional for your employer. The employer does not necessarily have to utilize the current mileage rate or reimburse you. Review your previous tax return and you'll notice a section for unreimbursed mileage. I recommend discussing the issue further with your HR representative to better determine what methods of reimbursement,if any, exist in your company.
