Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

6 provisions identified: 4 benefits, 1 costs, 1 mixed.

50% credit for Cedar Crest donations

For tax years 2021 through 2030, Kansas gives a credit equal to 50% of your donation to the Friends of Cedar Crest Association. The credit is capped at $25,000 for resident individuals and $50,000 for corporations or financial institutions. The program as a whole is capped at $350,000 each fiscal year. The credit is not refundable and cannot exceed your tax bill.

50% credit for Eisenhower Foundation gifts

For tax years 2021 through 2030, Kansas gives a credit equal to 50% of your donation to the Eisenhower Foundation. The credit is capped at $25,000 for resident individuals and $50,000 for corporations or financial institutions. The program as a whole is capped at $350,000 each fiscal year. The credit is not refundable and cannot exceed your tax bill.

Angel investor credit extended and expanded

Kansas keeps the angel investor tax credit through 2031. The statewide pool is $6.5 million in 2023, $7.0 million in 2024, $7.5 million in 2025, and $8.0 million each year from 2026 to 2031. Unused credits can be carried and issued in later years up to 2031. If you have no Kansas income tax bill and don’t expect one this year, you can get a transferable credit interest worth up to 50% of your cash investment in a qualified Kansas business. Starting in 2027, at least 25% of credits go to investments in counties with 50,000 or fewer people when enough requests arrive by October 1.

Aviation student and employer credits extended

Kansas keeps the aerospace and aviation education tax credits open longer. New credits for program graduates and their employers can be earned or issued through December 31, 2031. This replaces the earlier cutoff of December 31, 2026.

Caps on angel investor tax credits

Kansas limits angel investor credits to $100,000 for any one Kansas business. An individual investor, or the owner of a permitted-entity investor, cannot receive more than $350,000 in credits in one year. These limits apply for tax year 2021 and all later years in the program.

Old tax code supplements removed

Kansas removes certain 2025 supplement sections from law. This is cleanup to reflect the updated rules and does not change your taxes or benefits by itself.
