Earned income credit in Kansas

Varies

Does Kansas Have an Earned Income Tax Credit?

Short answer: Yes: Kansas offers the Kansas Earned Income Tax Credit, 17% of the federal EITC (refundable). Full-year residents only. You, your spouse and all dependents need valid SSNs; an ITIN on the return disqualifies it.

Claim the federal EITC on Form 1040 (with Schedule EIC if you have qualifying children); state credits go on your state return.

Records to keep: Keep your state return, W-2s and 1099s (1099-R, SSA-1099), and any state credit worksheets. Check your state revenue department's current-year instructions before you file.
