Election worker pay FAQ
When can I expect my cheque?
The remaining cheques will be mailed by Dec. 19.
Please check with Canada Post for current mail delivery timeframes.
If you do not receive your cheque by Dec. 31, 2025, or if you have further questions, please call us at 403-476-4100 or email elections@calgary.ca.
Why did it take so long to get my cheque?
We value the important contributions of all election workers and appreciate your patience. As was communicated during election worker training, worker pay was scheduled to take approximately 6 to 8 weeks to process after Election Day.
As a result of two recounts, additional time was required to calculate final pay for some workers (including training, hours worked, mileage and receipts as applicable).
What if my cheque amount is incorrect?
If your cheque appears to be incorrect, please call 403-476-4100 or email elections@calgary.ca.
What if my address has changed or I need my cheque sent to a different address?
If your address has changed or you need your cheque sent to a different address, please call 403-476-4100 or email elections@calgary.ca.
