Kansas paycheck calculator, 2026
Kansas uses a compact three-bracket schedule, so most salaries sit in the middle band and the top rate arrives at a fairly low income. The K-4 form asks for both an allowance count and a filing status, and Kansas allowances are worth a fixed annual amount each rather than a percentage.

Bonuses and supplemental pay
Kansas withholds supplemental wages — bonuses, commission, severance — at a flat 5%, separately from your regular salary. A bonus can therefore have a different amount withheld than the same money paid as salary, which is usually why a bonus arrives smaller than expected.
