Tax collections in Kansas continue to improve over last year.
Governor Jeff Colyer’s office released the latest tax revenue numbers for the state on Tuesday. Fiscal year 2019 tax collections total $2.7 billion so far, exceeding fiscal year 2018 numbers by more than $221.20 million. Revenue also exceeded expected collections by $2.74 million.
Breaking it down, state tax collections this November were $38.60 million more than collections in November of 2017. That’s an increase of 8.41 percent. Individual income tax collections in November totaled $235.02 million, $27.40 million more than what was collected the previous November.
The only downside was in sales tax collections. November 2018 sales tax revenue was $115,000 less than what was collected the previous November.
