unauthorized alien in this state. If the business entity fails to file a signed

(2) When making a determination of whether an employee is an 
unauthorized alien, a court shall only consider the federal government's 
determination pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1373(c). The court shall take judicial 
notice of any verification of the employment authorization status 
previously provided by the federal government. The court may, and at the 
request of a party shall, request the federal government to provide a new 
verification of the employment authorization status of the employee 
pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1373(c). The most recent determination of the 
employment authorization status of an employee by the federal 
government shall create a rebuttable presumption as to the employee's 
employment authorization status.
(g) A business entity that has complied in good faith with:
(1) This section through enrollment in e-verify and that has used e-
verify to confirm the employment authorization of any employee in 
question shall have a rebuttable presumption that the business entity did 
not knowingly employ an unauthorized alien; and
(2) the requirements of 8 U.S.C. § 1324a(b) shall have an affirmative 
defense that the business entity did not knowingly employ an unauthorized 
alien.
(h) Any penalty imposed pursuant to this section may be imposed 
separate from, commensurate with or in addition to any other applicable 
civil or criminal penalty, including, but not limited to, any criminal penalty 
pursuant to K.S.A. 21-6509, and amendments thereto.
New Sec. 3. (a) (1) On and after July 1, 2025, every business entity 
doing business within this state that employs one or more employees shall 
register with and utilize e-verify to verify the employment authorization of 
all new employees. The business entity shall retain all documentation 
received in connection with its participation in e-verify that verifies the 
employment authorization of any employee verified through e-verify for at 
least three years after the end of an employee's employment with such 
business entity. Upon request by any county or district attorney or the 
attorney general, the business entity shall provide this documentation to 
such county or district attorney or the attorney general.
(2) The provisions of this subsection may be enforced in the courts of 
this state by a civil action brought by any county or district attorney or the 
attorney general. Upon a finding of a violation of this subsection by a 
business entity, the court shall order the suspension of all licenses issued 
by the state or any subdivision of the state that are held by the business 
entity for at least 10 days but not more than one year.
(b) On and after July 1, 2025, every public employer in this state shall

(c) On and after July 1, 2025, no public employer shall enter into a 
contract for the performance of services within this state unless the 
contractor registers and participates in e-verify to verify the employment 
authorization of all new employees. This subsection shall not apply to any 
contracts entered into prior to July 1, 2025.
New Sec. 4. (a) All business entities shall annually submit a signed 
affidavit to the secretary of revenue that states:
(1) Whether the business entity:
(A) Utilized a business expense or business loss deduction in 
determining federal adjusted gross income;
(B) employed any employees or independent contractors for the tax

(b) The secretary of revenue may audit any business entity that:

(2) the secretary has probable cause to believe is out of compliance 
with this section.
(c) If the secretary of revenue determines that a business entity has 
knowingly made material misrepresentations of fact regarding information 
contained in the affidavit, the business entity shall be required to add back 
business deductions taken, to the extent such deductions constitute wages 
or remuneration paid to employees whose employment authorization was 
not verified using e-verify, in determining the business entity's adjusted 
gross income used to calculate the business entity's state tax liability.
Sec. 5. K.S.A. 2024 Supp. 79-32,117 is hereby amended to read as 
follows: 79-32,117. (a) The Kansas adjusted gross income of an individual 
means such individual's federal adjusted gross income for the taxable year, 
with the modifications specified in this section.
(b) There shall be added to federal adjusted gross income:
(i) Interest income less any related expenses directly incurred in the 
purchase of state or political subdivision obligations, to the extent that the 
same is not included in federal adjusted gross income, on obligations of 
any state or political subdivision thereof, but to the extent that interest 
income on obligations of this state or a political subdivision thereof issued 
prior to January 1, 1988, is specifically exempt from income tax under the

laws of this state authorizing the issuance of such obligations, it shall be 
excluded from computation of Kansas adjusted gross income whether or 
not included in federal adjusted gross income. Interest income on 
obligations of this state or a political subdivision thereof issued after 
December 31, 1987, shall be excluded from computation of Kansas 
adjusted gross income whether or not included in federal adjusted gross 
income.
(ii) Taxes on or measured by income or fees or payments in lieu of 
income taxes imposed by this state or any other taxing jurisdiction to the 
extent deductible in determining federal adjusted gross income and not 
credited against federal income tax. This paragraph shall not apply to taxes 
imposed under the provisions of K.S.A. 79-1107 or 79-1108, and 
amendments thereto, for privilege tax year 1995, and all such years 
thereafter.
(iii) The federal net operating loss deduction, except that the federal 
net operating loss deduction shall not be added to an individual's federal 
adjusted gross income for tax years beginning after December 31, 2016.
(iv) Federal income tax refunds received by the taxpayer if the 
deduction of the taxes being refunded resulted in a tax benefit for Kansas 
income tax purposes during a prior taxable year. Such refunds shall be 
included in income in the year actually received regardless of the method 
of accounting used by the taxpayer. For purposes hereof, a tax benefit shall 
be deemed to have resulted if the amount of the tax had been deducted in 
determining income subject to a Kansas income tax for a prior year 
regardless of the rate of taxation applied in such prior year to the Kansas 
taxable income, but only that portion of the refund shall be included as 
bears the same proportion to the total refund received as the federal taxes 
deducted in the year to which such refund is attributable bears to the total 
federal income taxes paid for such year. For purposes of the foregoing 
sentence, federal taxes shall be considered to have been deducted only to 
the extent such deduction does not reduce Kansas taxable income below 
zero.
(v) The amount of any depreciation deduction or business expense 
deduction claimed on the taxpayer's federal income tax return for any 
capital expenditure in making any building or facility accessible to the 
handicapped, for which expenditure the taxpayer claimed the credit 
allowed by K.S.A. 79-32,177, and amendments thereto.
(vi) Any amount of designated employee contributions picked up by 
an employer pursuant to K.S.A. 12-5005, 20-2603, 74-4919 and 74-4965, 
and amendments thereto.
(vii) The amount of any charitable contribution made to the extent the 
same is claimed as the basis for the credit allowed pursuant to K.S.A. 79-
32,196, and amendments thereto.

gross income.

same is claimed as the basis for the credit allowed pursuant to K.S.A. 74-
50,154, and amendments thereto.
(xii) For taxable years commencing after December 31, 2004, 
amounts received as withdrawals not in accordance with the provisions of 
K.S.A. 74-50,204, and amendments thereto, if, at the time of contribution

such amounts are not already included in the federal adjusted gross 
income.
