    Enter your 1099-R in the federal section.   Where do I enter a 1099-R?

     

    When you go through the Kansas state return, the exemption will be applied to your state return.   Retirement benefits included in federal AGI that are exempt from Kansas tax:


    Federal retirement benefits. Federal Civil Service Retirement or Disability Fund payments and any other amounts received as retirement benefits from employment by the federal government or for service in the U.S. Armed Forces.
    Kansas pension plans
    – Kansas Public Employees Retirement (KPERS) annuities, Kansas Police and Firemen’s Retirement System pensions, Kansas
    Teachers Retirement annuities, Kansas Highway Patrol pensions, Justices and Judges Retirement System annuities, Board
    of Public Utilities pensions.
    – Retirement annuity contracts purchased for faculty and others employed by the State Board of Regents or by educational
    institutions under its management with either their direct contributions or through salary reduction plans.
    – Amounts received by retired employees of Washburn University as retirement and pension benefits under the university’s
    retirement plan.
    – Certain pensions received from Kansas first class cities that are not covered by KPERS.
    Railroad Retirement benefits. Any retirement plan administered by the U.S. Railroad Retirement Board, including Tier I,
    Tier II, dual vested benefits, and supplemental annuities.
