The State's acceptance process varies from Federal. Sometimes state returns stay in Pending for several days or even longer. Kentucky stated that they encourage taxpayers to file as early as possible and will also begin accepting both electronic and paper tax returns on Jan. 29. The state will begin processing individual income tax refunds as soon as possible and not later than Monday, Feb. 26, 2018. This date has been pushed back from Kentucky's usual Feb. 15 date to allow more time to test counter-fraud measures using actual data.
