Kansas Offender Registration Act:

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF THE OFFENDER - I UNDERSTAND THE FOLLOWING:

1. I have been convicted or adjudicated of a crime that requires registration under the Kansas Offender Registration Act, K.S.A. 22-4901 et seq., hereafter referred to as "the Act", and must honor all duties specified by the Act.
2. At the time of conviction or adjudication, the court will complete a notice of duty to register if I am released prior to sentencing. Within three (3) days, I will report to the registering law enforcement agency in the county or tribal land of conviction or adjudication and to the registering law enforcement agency in any place where I reside, maintain employment or attend school, to complete the registration form.
3. If in the custody of a correctional facility, I will register with the correctional facility within three business days of initial custody and shall not be required to update such registration until released from custody, granted work release or otherwise allowed to leave the grounds of the correctional facility.
4. Within three (3) days of coming into any county or location of jurisdiction where I reside or intend to reside, maintain employment or intend to maintain employment, attend school or intend to attend school, I must register with each registering law enforcement agency in the county or location of jurisdiction. Each time I register, I must be photographed, pay a registration fee of $20, and complete the registration form with all information and updated information required for registration as provided in K.S.A. 22-4907. In addition to the Kansas Offender Registration Act, sex offenders who reside, work or attend school on tribal land shall register pursuant to tribal law. Tribes in the state of Kansas that require registration include the Prairie Band Potawatomi Nation, Iowa Tribe of Kansas and Nebraska and the Kickapoo Tribe in Kansas. Sac and Fox Nation has delegated the registration responsibility to the state of Kansas through the local sheriff’s offices, therefore compliance with the Kansas law is sufficient.
5. I am required to report four times a year in person to the registering law enforcement agency in the county or location of jurisdiction where I reside, maintain employment, or attend school. After initial registration, I must report in the month of my birthday and every third, sixth, and ninth month occurring before and after my birth month.
6. If my birthday is in January, April, July, or October, I am required to report to the registering law enforcement agency in January, April, July and October.
   If my birthday is in February, May, August, or November, I am required to report to the registering law enforcement agency in February, May, August and November.
   If my birthday is in March, June, September, or December, I am required to report to the registering law enforcement agency in March, June, September and December.
7. If I am transient, I must report in person to the registering law enforcement agency of such county or location of jurisdiction in which I am physically present within three business days of arrival in the county or location of jurisdiction. I am required to register in person with the registering law enforcement agency every 30 days, or more often at the discretion of the registering law enforcement agency and provide a list of places where I have slept and otherwise frequented during the period of time since the last date of registration and provide a list of places where I may be contacted and where I intend to sleep and otherwise frequent during the period of time prior to the next required date of registration.
8. I must register in person upon any commencement, change or termination of residence location, employment status, school attendance or other information within three days of such commencement, change or termination, to the registering law enforcement agency or agencies where last registered and provide written notice to the Kansas bureau of investigation.

The driver’s license and identification card shall indicate that I am a registered offender. If maintaining primary residence in Kansas, I must surrender all other driver's licenses and identification cards from other states, territories, and the District of Columbia, except if I am or an immediate family member is maintaining active duty in any branch of the United States military.

This time period does not include any time incarcerated in any jail or correctional facility or any period of non-compliance with the requirements of the Act. If I am convicted as an adult of a second or subsequent offense(s) covered by the Act, I will be required to register for life. Any conviction for an attempt, conspiracy or solicitation requires registration for the same term as the underlying offense. If this is my first adult conviction, I must register for twenty-five (25) years unless a longer term is specified or present term limits are amended by statute for any of the following: Criminal sodomy if victim is 16 or more years of age but less than 18 years of age and a member of the same sex or an animal, Indecent solicitation of a child, Electronic solicitation, Aggravated incest, Indecent liberties with a child, Unlawful sexual relations, Sexual exploitation of a child if the victim is 14 or more years of age but less than 18 years of age, Aggravated sexual battery, Promoting prostitution if the prostitute is 14 or more years of age but less than 18 years of age.

This time period does not include time incarcerated in any jail, juvenile facility or correctional facility or any period of non-compliance with the requirements of the Act.

I must register in person with the registering law enforcement agency in the county or location of jurisdiction where I am residing, maintaining employment, or attending school within three (3) days to complete a registration form.

I will provide an itinerary including, but not limited to, destination, means of transport and duration of travel.
16. If I use the internet, I am required to report to the registering law enforcement agency any and all: email addresses; online identities; information relating to membership in any and all personal web pages or online social networks; and internet screen names.

19. I understand that if I receive an expungement for the crime that required registration, my registration obligation does not terminate.
