KANSAS CITY, Mo. – The Kansas Department of Revenue said Friday they have extended the deadline for Kansas corporations to file returns, citing the complexities of legislation passed by Congress in 2017.

The 30-day extension pushes the deadline back to November 15.

“The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act significantly changed the landscape of tax law for corporations, and the extra time is designed to give corporate filers more time to ensure accuracy and compliance with the new law,” Division of Taxation Director David Clauser said in a news release.

A release outlining the extension said the deadline for corporate tax payments, which are due on the 15th day of the fourth month following the end of the corporation’s tax year, remains unchanged.
