Friday April 8,1988 THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Published since 1889 by the students of the University of Kansas Vol. 98, No.130 (USPS 650-640) School retirees may be eligible for tax refunds By Kevin Dilmore Kansan staff writer Retired employees of Board of Regents schools who contributed to certain retirement funds might be eligible for tax refunds that could amount to several thousand dollars, a state legislative committee member said yesterday. Oscar Haugh, secretary of the state legislative committee on the American Association of Retired People, said he had received word from his organization's legal counsel that two state statutes could make benefits paid from two Board of Regents retirement funds tax exempt. The statutes are numbered K.S.A. 74-4923b and K.S.A. 74-4925d. If the money is ruled tax exempt, employees that contributed to those funds could receive a refund on the amount of state taxes they paid on money in those accounts in the last four years. The funds are the Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association and the College Retirement Equities Fund College Retirement Equities Fund Lake Littleton, director of the tions include the University of Kansas, Kansas State University, Wichita State University, Emporia State University, Fort Hays State University, Pittsburg State University and the Kansas Institute of Technology in Salina. Should the tax exempt claim be determined legitimate, Luttjohann said that Kansas' four-year statute of limitations would allow retirees to file amended tax returns dating back to 1984 to receive a refund and that if retirees were speedy enough to beat the April 15 tax deadline, their 1983 returns also would be eligible Haugh said that he and the AARP had been working toward the refund for more than a month, after the discovery of the statute. "Our group researched the program and found out something that never should have happened," he said. "I have lost thousands of dollars, and I wouldn't be surprised if the refund ran into several million dollars. "Our job is to protect retired people; and this time, I think we have uncovered a real flasco."
