State tax refunds will take longer in 2016

Kentucky Department of Revenue Predicts Longer Wait for Refunds Due to Strengthened Security and Fraud Detection Analysis: Up to 21 days for electronic filers; 6 to 8 weeks for paper filers

By Pamela Trautner

Frankfort, KY - Because of enhanced security features and fraud analysis tools, the Kentucky Department of Revenue (DOR) is estimating that refunds may take a bit longer to process this year--up to 21 days for electronic filers if their return is error free.

"While electronic filing is the fastest way to get refunds, the department wants Kentucky taxpayers to be aware that refunds may not be processed as quickly as in the past," said Dan Bork, commissioner of the Kentucky Department of Revenue. "We have strong internal controls and we have implemented some new fraud detection processes, which protect both the taxpayer and the Commonwealth of Kentucky from fraudsters."

Tips for the ACT tests: 1 Mar 2016 & 15 Mar 2016 (makeup)

FRANKFORT, KY (Feb. 8, 2016) - Juniors in Kentucky public high schools will take the ACT on March 1, with March 15 set for a make-up day.

These tips from the Kentucky Higher Education Assistance Authority (KHEAA) may help students do better on the test.

  • Read, read, read. Most of the ACT is based on reading. The more you read, the better you'll do.
  • Take advantage of any free ACT prep courses offered by your school or by local colleges and libraries.
  • Take practice tests online or buy practice tests for use at home.
  • Familiarize yourself with the sections and directions.
  • Get plenty of rest the night before, and eat a good breakfast that morning.
  • Remember to take No. 2 pencils and a calculator if your school doesn't provide them.
  • Do the questions you can answer easily first, then come back to the harder questions, especially in the math portion.
  • Guess if you have no idea what the answer should be. Guessing doesn't hurt your score.

KHEAA is the state agency that administers KEES, need-based grants and other programs to help students pay for college.

To learn how to plan and prepare for higher education, go to www.gotocollege.ky.gov. For more information about Kentucky scholarships and grants, visit www.kheaa.com; write KHEAA, P.O. Box 798, Frankfort, KY 40602; or call 800-928-8926, ext. 6-7214.

James Murrell: Recommends a Great Pyrenees v. Black Vultures

Comments re article 80884 Black Vulture depredation a priority for KY US Farm Bureaus

By James Murrell

So we are being asked to apply for a permit that will give us legal permission to kill a predator that is killing livestock?

Being a lifelong Kentuckian, I do not remember seeing any or hearing of these Black Vultures before the last few years.

Makes me ask why suddenly have their populations grown to the point of becoming adverse and detrimental to livestock of all types?

I have purchased a Great Pyreneese to guard my goats; best investment I think I have ever made; nothing and I mean nothing, gets near them with her on duty, including Vultures. --James Murrell
