Taxation - Individual Income

Should I file as a resident or nonresident of Kansas?
If you moved into Kansas last year, you have the option to file a Kansas return as either a resident or a nonresident. As a resident, you must file a Kansas income tax return if you file a Federal income tax return or if your income is greater than the combined total of your Kansas standard deduction and your personal exemption amount.

As a nonresident, you must file a Kansas income tax return if you have any income from Kansas sources.
It is to your benefit to examine both the resident and nonresident filing options in determining your tax liability.

What should I do before I mail my return?
Before mailing your Kansas income tax return, please:

* Enter your Social Security number and that of your spouse in the boxes
provided.
* If you receive a tax booklet, check to see if the name and address on your
mailing label is correct. If not, make any necessary corrections on the
label and check the box for name or address change.
* If a credit for taxes paid to another state is claimed, a copy of the other
state's return must be enclosed.
* If your address is outside of Kansas, you must enclose a copy of your
Federal return and federal schedules A through F. If your address is in
Kansas, you do not need to include a copy of your Federal return.
* Sign your return. If married filing a joint return, both you and your spouse
must sign the return.
* If you are claiming any credits requiring a special Kansas schedule, include
that schedule with your return.
* If you are making a payment, complete Kansas Payment Voucher (K-40V).
Enclose the voucher and your payment with your return. Please write your
Social Security number on the payment.
* Do not staple any of your documents or enclosures together.
* Attach sufficient postage when mailing. Returns with more than five pages
may require additional postage.
* If you completed Schedule S, be sure to include it with your K-40 return.
