A Canadian contractor invoice is more than a price tag taped to a quote. The CRA, your client's bookkeeper, and your own records all need the same information laid out clearly. Miss any of it and you spend a week chasing an email chain instead of cashing a cheque.
These three invoicing mistakes are the most common reasons contractors get paid late. All three are avoidable.
Most "get paid faster" advice is either generic ("send invoices on time") or unrealistic ("require deposits from every client"). What actually moves the needle for working contractors is shorter feedback loops between finishing a job and the client receiving an invoice they can act on.
Same-day invoicing. Industry data is consistent: invoices sent the day a job ends get paid roughly 30 percent faster than invoices sent a week later. The reason is simple. The work is fresh in the client's mind, the receipt of services is unambiguous, and they do not need to dig back through their calendar to verify what you did.
Deposit on jobs over a thousand dollars. A 30 to 50 percent deposit covers your materials, locks the client's commitment, and means the final invoice is half the size and half as scary to approve. Contractors who require deposits report fewer cancellations and faster final-payment cycles.
e-Transfer over cheque. A cheque takes 5 to 10 business days from the client's desk to your bank account. e-Transfers clear the same day. Add your e-Transfer email or autodeposit address directly to the invoice notes field and most clients will use it.
