thanks for the responses! I checked the thread for a few days and did not think I was going to get any responses. Sorry it took me so long to check back.
Jack-It is based on the QCD, which was done 3 months after the actual sale.
399-when googling I found that also (even the misspelling of the word "spouce" lol) and that is what has me worried!!!
NYAnnie-yes, I am going to copy and paste the original sale, the QCD and then something the title company did just a few weeks ago to supposedly correct the situation. When I called the title company to inquire why I am getting this audit for doc stamp tax from 2009, they told me that the state is crazy, that is B.S. etc etc. She then told me to get the QCD to her and she would add another stamp to it that should take care of the situation. I faxed it up to Tallahassee, and I am still told "Nope, you owe the doc stamp tax!"
WHY ON EARTH should we pay the tax twice? Why would I have done that? When my DH noticed my name was not on the deed, he mentioned it to the mortgage broker who told him it was no big deal to get my name added on later. We were in a rush to close and I guess he didn't want to take the time to change the paperwork. Closed on 3-26-2009. So, a few months later when we mentioned it again, he said, "Oh yeah, no big deal, but the title company takes care of that. Call the woman we dealt with at closing and she will help you!"
I called her and she said, "Oh, sure, no biggie...it will be $10 plus a 70 cent tax." So we did it and that was that. That was 6-30-2009
Fast forward to a few months ago, we refinanced to a lower rate. Apparently it dredged up this transaction and we got an audit in the mail.

why on the QCD does it show grantor and grantee as both or our names? Shouldn't it say grantor Bob Smith....then on the next line say grantee Bob Smith, Sue Smith? For some reason that give me a little hope.
also, here is the info on the actual page I don't know what "DRR-T" means:
Date

Is the title company responsible for this? I hate these situations, the mortgage broker is a friend, and the woman at the title company is a neighbor. Thanks for any insight you can share!
