Federal tax credit for Kansas scholarship donors

Kansas joins the federal tax credit for individual donations to Kansas scholarship groups that meet federal requirements. This applies to tax years beginning after December 31, 2026; this law does not set the credit amount. The State Treasurer must send required information to the U.S. Treasury each year, including a list of qualifying Kansas groups. Kansas agencies cannot impose rules stricter than the federal law or its rules. The law takes effect upon publication in the statute book.
