Kansas business filing dates, 2027
State-level due dates for businesses filing in Kansas. Every line links to the official page it came from, with the date that page was read. Where no official source has been verified, the line says so instead of showing a date.
Coverage · 2 of 6 fully dated
Income / franchise tax return
no fixed date · 2 not dated yetThe annual return for the business’s tax year, and in franchise-tax states the report that keeps the entity in good standing. Which form and which date depend on the entity type and the tax year. Where the source grants an extension, it extends the time to file; the source says whether it also extends the time to pay.
