Temporary Operations Pause Coming in August

Beginning August 5, 2026, the Kentucky Department of Revenue will pause some of our operations for seven business days as we update our tax system and the MyTaxes portal. From August 5th through August 13th, staff will have limited access to our system and will not be able to process returns or provide case status updates. KY DOR intends to resume normal operations on Friday, August 14, 2026.​
