Payroll FAQ

Employees who are members of the Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE) and casual employees are paid on a bi-weekly basis, every other Friday (if the regular pay date falls on a holiday, the pay will be deposited on the Thursday instead).

Staff, Faculty, and Temporary employees on a contract of more than three months are paid on a monthly basis on the last Friday of each month. View a list of pay dates for the year.

Check with your departmental administrator to ensure that your paperwork has been completed and submitted for processing within the prescribed deadlines.

Employees can still claim their T4s with an out of country or another Canadian address. This does not affect the tax processes. If the address has to be changed, please send a request with the full name, ID # and the updated address to payroll@uwaterloo.ca.

Payroll does not issue this statement. T2202A receipts (Tuition and Education Amounts Certificates) can be accessed through Quest. For more information please visit the Quest tax receipts page.
