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


Payments 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.
