Overview of MyTaxes
The Kentucky Department of Revenue will soon launch a new tax portal for business tax filers called MyTaxes. The new tax portal is projected to be available on March 14, 2025.
The new system will offer:
- A more comprehensive view of taxpayer data including filing, paying, and viewing return information for multiple tax types
- Ability to view taxpayer correspondence
- Increased self-service capabilities such as submitting a refund application, making payments and requesting a letter of good standing
What do Business Tax Filers Need to Know?
- Beginning March 14, 2025, business tax filers will use the new MyTaxes portal instead of OneStop to access information and file taxes for Sales & Use, Corporation Income (Corp)/Limited Liability Entity (LLE), Telecom, Withholding, Utilities Gross Receipts License Tax (UGRLT), Non-Resident Withholding (NRWH), Commercial Mobile Radio Service (CMRS), Tire, Transient, and Tobacco and Vapor Products Licensing.
- MyTaxes will also replace E-Tax, the UGRLT and Telecom filing system and WRAPS, the Withholding Returns and Payment System.
- Starting February 26, there will be a two-week operations pause at Kentucky Department of Revenue to prepare for these transitions. Business tax filers cannot file returns or receive refund payments in the old system, OneStop, or the new system, MyTaxes, from February 26 to March 14.
MyTaxes migrated users received an email on March 4 with their username and instructions to access their MyTaxes.ky.gov account beginning March 14.
- If the email was lost or deleted, note that another login email with username and instructions will be sent on March 17.
- Once MyTaxes launches on March 14, the Customer Contact Center (502-764-5555) can assist with recovering a username if the username was not received or lost.
- Usernames cannot be changed. Usernames were assigned based on the information on the user profile in the OneStop, WRAPS, UGRL, or Telecom systems. If a user wants a different username, they will have to create a new user account in MyTaxes and associate (link) their business entities to the new user account.
What do Individual Income Tax Filers Need to Know?
The Kentucky Department of Revenue is transitioning to a new integrated tax system and launching a new business tax portal called MyTaxes.
Starting February 26, there will be a two-week operations pause at Kentucky Department of Revenue to prepare for these transitions.
Kentuckians can file individual income tax returns at any point from Jan. 27 to April 15, but Department of Revenue staff will not be able to process refunds or send acknowledgements from February 26 to March 14.
For example, if you file your return on February 27 and are eligible for a refund, it will be processed after normal operations resume on March 14.
Kentuckians’ federal tax returns will be processed normally, no matter when they file.

Why is this system change occurring during tax season?
These changes and the go-live dates were established in consultation with many stakeholders, and there was careful consideration and assessment of the tax filing requirements and revenue collection to determine the window of minimal impact that was also feasible with the system development window. We understand that no month is a good month for a change at the Kentucky Department of Revenue and this will cause some inconvenience for stakeholders, but we are ensuring everyone has the information they need in advance for minimal disruption.
Why is a two-week operations pause needed?
The two-week temporary pause in operations is necessary to transition from the current systems to the new integrated tax system. No data will be able to be entered or updated in any system during this transition period. The temporary pause in operations will last from February 26, 2025, to March 14, 2025. Kentucky Department of Revenue staff will be answering phones but will only be able to provide limited assistance due to processing limitations.
