Payment Services
The Payment Services group is responsible for timely and accurate expenditure processing of University funds, striving to maintain an exceptional level of customer service for faculty, staff and students. Financial controls are exercised by our staff to assure that all processing procedures are consistent with University policies and Government rules.
The types of payments processed by Payment Services include: Vendor and Independent Contractor Agreement Invoices, Payment Requisitions and Employee Business & Travel Reimbursements.
SFU payment terms are 30 days from the invoice date. Employees, however, are paid within five business days after Expense Claim submission and authorized approval.
