The law, in plain words
Alberta put dates on construction payment.
The Prompt Payment and Construction Lien Act sets different clocks for owners, contractors, subcontractors, disputes, and liens. We turn those dates into an operating process.
- Proper Invoice
- The clock depends on a qualifying invoice. We check the required fields before relying on it.
- 14 / 28 days
- The owner's general dispute and payment windows after receiving a Proper Invoice.
- 7 days
- The general flow-down deadline after a contractor receives payment from the owner.
- 60 / 90 days
- General lien windows measured from statutory work or supply events—not simply the invoice date.
