How Kansas paycheck tax works
Kansas uses a two-rate income tax for 2026: 5.20% and 5.58% (top rate), set by 2024 Senate Bill 1. Withholding subtracts $2,320 per allowance; the standard-deduction equivalent is built in as a 0%-rate band on the first $3,605 of income for single filers ($8,240 married). Kansas withholds supplemental wages such as bonuses at a flat 5%. Note: Kansas's detailed 2026 withholding brackets are pending confirmation against the official Kansas Department of Revenue tables; the two-rate 5.20%/5.58% structure is fixed by statute.
The calculator annualizes your pay, then runs Kansas's 2026 graduated withholding alongside federal income tax and FICA. It's a close estimate rather than an exact match: your actual paycheck can differ from your employer's payroll, which may use exact per-period tables.
