Kansas Tax Return Backlog Delays Processing Aid From Agency
Kansas Department of Revenue still processing 70 000 to 80 000 state income tax returns after bringing in workers from another agency to open envelopes. Spokeswoman Jeannine Koranda said processing should finish by week’s end. Unopened envelopes contain checks and may affect plans to address a projected budget shortfall of more than 420 million dollars next year.

Kansas income tax revenue trails last year but may finish higher
Kansas Legislative Research Department reports $82 million less in income tax collected at this point than last year, yet the year is expected to end $62 million above the prior year. If May and June fall short, the budget gap could grow. Sen. Les Donovan notes the figures could lift hundreds of millions of dollars for a budget fix as processing lags into May due to fewer temporary workers.
