Schedule KW-2 (42A740-KW2) – Kentucky Income Tax Withheld Schedule KW-2

Kentucky Income Tax Withheld is used to report Kentucky income tax withheld for paper filed returns. Schedule KW-2 should be completed using the 2020 W2 and 1099 forms that have Kentucky income tax withheld. Schedule KW-2 should be included with mailed returns instead of the income and withholding tax statements (W-2, W-2G, 1099-R, etc.).

The taxpayer must keep copies of the Kentucky income and withholding tax statements for the same retention period as the return and provide them to KDOR if requested. When the return is printed from the software package, the KW-2 should be included in the package if there is a possibility that the return will be filed by mail instead of e-filed.

The Schedule KW-2 is not used for e-filed returns.
