Accounts Payable

Accounts Payable facilitates the payment to suppliers and various expense reimbursement activities for UFV staff, faculty and vendors. Together with the Procurement Division, we support UFV staff, faculty, researchers and administrators through the entire procurement and payment cycle.

If you have questions we are here to help, please contact a member of our team or email us at acctspayable@ufv.ca.


Cheques are prepared on a weekly basis, every Thursday. If you are planning to pick up your cheque at Financial Services, please note cheques are typically available after 11:00am on Friday. Requests for payments to be made outside of this timeline are to be directed to the Accounts Payable Supervisor.
