Kansas State Tax

Important! In the past, Kansas has accepted the Federal Form W-4. Due to differences between State and Federal withholding policies, however, the Kansas Department of Revenue has developed the K-4 state employee withholding allowance certificate form for state withholding tax purposes. This form must be used for employees hired after January 1, 2008. Employees hired before January 1, 2008 are not required to fill out the K-4 unless they want to adjust their withholding.

Note: For records on 5-2-2 Payroll Records that have the Payroll Type of 2—Bonus, Sage 100 Contractor calculates state income tax using the published flat-rate.
