Coincidence! the oxidation number of sulfur in sufate is +6, in sulfite is +4. Sulfate is SO42-, sulfite is SO32- Personally I do not like using the word valency in this context, valency usually refers to elements- and is the number of bonds that an elemnt can form to other elemnts- it is an old term. In the context of ions charge seems to be a better word.

Is sulphate equals sulfate and sulphite equals sulfite?
my understanding is Sulphate = UK English spelling & sulfate = US English spelling chemically the same similarly Sulphite = UK English spelling & sulfite = US English spelling chemcially the same. I hope that helps
