Interesting. Didn't know Kansas was different. [Reply]
Why last checks are live is that companies begin cutting the about to be terminated employee off of all systems including direct deposit. They also in most cases, hold off on last payments until ALL company property, including key cards are returned.
This allows a clean separation and if they owe you expenses from a pending expense report, they will add that to your check without any taxes taken out. [Reply]
