​Cheque Processing and Distribution

A new process is being introduced to ensure that things run smoothly in the day-to-day band operations. From now on, requests for payments will only be accepted no later than Thursday at 3:00pm. Payments will then be issued every Monday.

Payments include the following:

· Reimbursement;

· Social assistance;

· Patient travel; and

· Other accounts payable

Here is a process diagram to help provide a better understanding of the new process:

​Here is a calendar to provide a visual on the dates and times which each process must occur by:

​If someone submits a payment request after 3:00pm on June 1st (or any other Thursday), the person’s payment will not be processed until the following Thursday’s process date – in this case June 8th, and therefore, they will not receive payment until the Monday following the Thursday’s process date – in this case June 12th.
