Filing Taxes Electronically In Kansas Makes Process Easier, Speeds Refund Delivery

Kansas residents can visit Kansas WebFile to file their 2016 Kansas Individual Income Tax Returns online. Filing individual income taxes online removes the onerous process of filling out paper forms, and it is the fastest way for taxpayers to receive refunds, according to the Kansas Department of Revenue. Last year, the Department of Revenue received over 1.4 million individual income tax returns electronically.

Online filing through WebFile is easy to use, secure, fast, and allows taxpayer refunds to be directly deposited into their bank account. Paper-filed returns do not qualify for direct deposit funds.

Required for online filing:

1. Information from “Original” 2015 return or Access Code,
2. All 2016 W-2 statements,
3. Required filers will need a completed 2016 Federal Income Tax Return.

Taxpayers who file online and request a direct deposit can expect to receive their refund quicker than filing with traditional paper forms. The Kansas Department of Revenue’s web refund status system, is an easy way to track the progress of refunds.
