Payment Summary at the Project View

Claim Date – It is the date that the online claim is submitted to ACOA Direct via the portal. For all other claims not submitted online, it is the date the claim is received at ACOA.

Claim Amount – The “Total Invoice Amount” on the submitted “Request for Payment – Claimed Cost” form less the HST/GST refund on those invoices. The “Claim Amount” depends on the GST/HST status. If the client received the full amount of HST/GST for the cost claimed, the “Claim Amount” is the “Total Invoice Amount” less “HST/GST included in invoice”. If a client is not eligible for refund, the “Claim Amount” is the” Total invoice amount” which includes GST/HST. For a non-profit organization, the “Claim Amount” is the client net cost (invoice amount less applicable GST/HST refund).

Payment Amount – This amount represents the amount approved by ACOA for a submitted claim. A total amount paid for all claims is displayed at the bottom of the column.

Cheque # – This represents the number on the cheque requisitioned by ACOA and sent to you, the client, by Public Works and Government Services Canada (PWGSC).

Payment status - The system displays one of the following statuses:

Under Evaluation – Request for payment submitted to ACOA for evaluation and approval.

Cancelled – Request for payment submitted and subsequently cancelled.
