# Kansas Paycheck Calculator

Two brackets, 5.2% and 5.58%, after a $3,605 standard deduction and a $9,160 personal exemption for single filers.

Graduated 5.2%–5.58%

Kansas taxes the first $23,000 of taxable income at 5.2% and the rest at 5.58% ($46,000 for married couples filing jointly). Before the rates apply, a single filer subtracts a $3,605 standard deduction and a $9,160 personal exemption; a married couple filing jointly subtracts $8,240 and $18,320. Kansas law sets these amounts for 2024 and later years, and there's no rate cut for 2026.

2 tax brackets: 5.2% and 5.58% · 5.58% above $23,000 taxable ($46,000 joint) · Standard deduction: $3,605 single, $8,240 joint · Personal exemption: $9,160 ($18,320 joint)

## Kansas Paycheck FAQ

Common questions about paychecks and taxes in Kansas

### What is the Kansas state income tax rate for 2026?

5.2% on the first $23,000 of Kansas taxable income and 5.58% above that for single, head-of-household and married-filing-separately filers; on a joint return the first bracket runs to $46,000. Kansas law sets these rates for 2024 and later. The state can lower them when revenue beats a target, but the Department of Revenue announced there will be no rate reduction for tax year 2026.

### What are the Kansas standard deduction and personal exemption?

The standard deduction is $3,605 single, $8,240 married filing jointly, $6,180 head of household and $4,120 married filing separately (the separate amount is from the 2025 Kansas instructions). The personal exemption is $9,160, or $18,320 on a joint return, and a head of household gets an extra $2,320, for $11,480. Kansas tells a qualifying widow(er) to file as head of household, so the calculator gives that status the $6,180 deduction but only the $9,160 exemption: the law gives the extra $2,320 to a federal head of household, which a surviving spouse isn't.

### How much Kansas tax is withheld from a bonus?

5% if your employer pays the bonus separately and figures federal withholding as a percentage of it. If the bonus is added to your regular wages, Kansas withholding is figured the regular way on the total.

### What does this calculator leave out for Kansas?

Kansas starts from federal adjusted gross income, so pre-tax deductions change your Kansas taxable income; the calculator starts from gross wages. It also leaves out itemized deductions, the extra standard deduction at 65 or older or blind ($850 single or head of household, $700 married), dependent exemptions ($2,320 each), the disabled veteran exemption and credits such as the food sales tax credit.
