As of the 2024 tax year, Kansas will no longer tax Social Security benefits, providing significant relief for retirees. Previously, Kansas taxed Social Security benefits if your federal adjusted gross income exceeded $75,000, impacting many seniors across the state. However, with this new change, Kansas joins the growing number of states offering full Social Security tax exemptions, regardless of income level.
This change is aimed at reducing the financial burden on retirees and making Kansas a more attractive place for those on a fixed income. The removal of this tax will allow retirees to retain more of their Social Security income, helping to offset the rising costs of healthcare, housing, and daily living.
For residents approaching retirement, this update is a welcome shift, allowing for better financial planning and peace of mind as they enjoy their golden years.
