State Warrant Searching
 
The Kansas State Treasurer's Office is always searching for ways to increase efficiency within the State system. The primary purpose of this page is to allow personnel of other state agencies easy access to information about paid and outstanding state warrants (checks). Because this site is not restricted, the names of payees have been intentionally removed. Such information can be provided only to authorized personnel.

As you may know, many states have adopted laws which open but limit access to public documents. Our act is known as the Kansas Open Records Act (KORA), K.S.A. 45-215 et seq. Under the KORA and our civil code, lists of names and addresses obtained from public records cannot be used for the purpose of selling or offering for sale any property or service to the persons listed (i.e. commercial solicitation). The civil code statute, K.S.A. 2006 Supp. 45-230, provides that we would be subject to civil penalties if we furnish such information to you, and you in turn use the information for commercial purposes. K.S.A. 2005 Supp. 45-230 also provides that you are also subject to a civil penalty of up to $500 for each occurrence if you use this data to sell any product or service to the individuals listed in our database.

Warrants files are updated on a daily basis. The information accessible from this page is as chronologically accurate as possible.

Our system keeps track of warrants in two separate files, one for paid warrants and the other for outstanding. In the month of payment, the warrants exist in both files. Complete funding information is housed for all warrants in the outstanding file, while none exists in the paid file. Both files will be checked when using this page.

Kansas state warrants have a seven digit warrant number. This number exists in the upper right hand corner of all warrants. In addition, the Kansas State Treasurer's Office stores them on-line with an additional digit in front of the regular number. This digit corresponds to the type of the warrant.

To look up a warrant, choose the type using the radio buttons. If the type is not known, choose the radio button stating this. Then type in the seven digit number shown on the warrant. Then click on the button entitled "Look up the warrant".

Please note that we store past years' warrants on the same file as the current year's; therefore, it is possible for duplicates to exist. Using the issue date of the warrant, you should be able to determine which of the displayed items is the match.
