Scrubbed IRA checkride

Hey, it's not my fault there's no obvious official
abbreviation for the instrument rating! Here's
what it says on my temporary cert (I think. going
from memory):

Ratings:
Private Pilot
Airplane Single Engine Land
Instrument Airplane

We all know PP-ASEL, but when I say "IA" someone
else wonders if I've just gotten my inspection
authorization -- which would seem odd considering
that I don't even have an A&P.

Anyway, with a name like mine, I'm probably
not what the IRA is looking for.

So you're now a pilot for the Irish Republican Army?

Then just call it an instrument rating! Must we abbreviate everything?
I've never heard of an ISP that charges by the letter
