Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

2 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 0 costs, 1 mixed.

Longer tax breaks for designated donations

Kansas extends donation credits for the Eisenhower Foundation and Friends of Cedar Crest Association to tax years starting in 2021–2030. Each credit equals 50% of qualifying donations against Kansas income or applicable privilege tax. Each program caps annual credits at $25,000 for eligible resident individuals and $50,000 for corporations and financial institutions. Each program also has a separate statewide limit of $350,000 per fiscal year. Credits cannot exceed the tax bill remaining after other credits; unused amounts cannot be refunded or carried forward.

Longer investor tax breaks with fees

Kansas extends angel investor credits through 2031 for cash investments in qualified securities of qualified Kansas businesses. Investors can receive up to 50% of their investment against Kansas income or privilege tax. Annual limits are $100,000 for investments in one business and $350,000 per investor. Statewide limits are $6.5 million for 2023, $7 million for 2024, $7.5 million for 2025, and $8 million yearly for 2026–2031. Unissued credits can carry forward for issuance through 2031. Starting in 2027, at least 25% is reserved for businesses in counties with 50,000 people or fewer. That reserve depends on enough requests arriving by October 1; it does not guarantee an investor a credit. Investors can use credits in the investment year and carry unused amounts forward until used, but cannot receive refunds. Owners of eligible investing entities claim credits based on their ownership shares. Investors with no current or reasonably expected tax liability can transfer up to half their credit once, to an individual. Transferred credits remain nonrefundable and subject to program caps and state documentation rules. Businesses, investors, or credit recipients pay administrative fees under a state fee schedule.
