Use the following instructions to accurately
complete your K-4 form, then detach the
lower portion and give it to your employer.
For assistance, call the Kansas Department
of Revenue at 785-368-8222.
Purpose of the K-4 form: A completed
withholding allowance certicate will let your
employer know how much Kansas income tax
should be withheld from your pay on income
you earn from Kansas sources. Because
your tax situation may change, you may want
to re-gure your withholding each year.
Exemption from Kansas withholding:
To qualify for exempt status you must verify
with the Kansas Department of Revenue
that: 1) last year you had the right to a
refund of all STATE income tax withheld
because you had no tax liability; and 2)
this year you will receive a full refund of all
STATE income tax withheld because you
will have no tax liability.
Basic Instructions: If you are not
exempt, complete the Personal Allowance
Worksheet that follows. The total on line F
should not exceed the total exemptions you
claim under “Exemptions and Dependents”
on your Kansas income tax return.
NOTE: Your status of “Single” or “Joint” may
differ from your status claimed on your federal
Form W-4).
Using the information from your Personal
Allowance Worksheet, complete the K-4
form below, sign it and provide it to your
employer. If your employer does not receive
a K-4 form from you, they must withhold
Kansas income tax from your wages without
exemption at the “Single” allowance rate.
Head of household: Generally, you may
claim head of household ling status on
your tax return only if you are unmarried
and pay more than 50% of the cost of
keeping up a home for yourself and for
your dependent(s).
Non-wage income: If you have a large
amount of non-wage Kansas source income,
such as interest or dividends, consider
making Kansas estimated tax payments on

may owe additional Kansas tax when you
le your state income tax return.
