Is my federal retirement annuity exempt from state tax in Kansas?

It appeared that retirement annuities are exempt from state tax but my return isn't showing a Kansas pension deduction.  How can I correct this?

To properly reflect the excludable amount of your Kansas pension deduction, you will need to make entries in the state interview section of TurboTax.

 

To do this in TurboTax online, log back into your return.

  1. Select State Taxes
  2. Proceed through the state interview screens until you see a screen titled "Here's the income that Kansas handles differently."  On this screen, scroll down to the section titled Retirement and select start/edit to the right of Pension Exemption.
  3. The next screen will be titled Pension Exemption.  Be sure to enter the amount of your pension that is exempt from taxation in Kansas in the column titled Kansas Exempt Amount.

Proceed through the state interview screens and answer the questions as applicable.
