H-4 child of a domiciled H-1B parent No — by published rule
Categorical: temporary-visa holders cannot demonstrate intent to remain indefinitely; KBOR guidance expects PR status held 12+ months. No eligible-visa list.
In-state tuition in Kansas, by visa
Whether a family on a work visa can ever pay the resident rate in Kansas — the governing rule, the H-4 and F-1 answers, the waiting clock, and any high-school-attendance path. The residency officer is always the final authority; this page gets you to the right one with the right citation.
Who decides
Statewide: K.S.A. 76-729 + K.A.R. 88-3-1 et seq. (KBOR); registrars apply.
The high-school path
K.S.A. 76-731a — 3 yrs KS HS + graduation 'regardless of citizenship status'; exclusion names student visas (and out-of-state-eligible persons) — a KS-HS-graduate H-4 child plausibly qualifies but this is UNCONFIRMED.
Covers visa-holder kids: unconfirmed.
Where this comes from
K.S.A. 76-729; K.A.R. 88-3-2; K.S.A. 76-731a.
Re-verification note: 76-731a scope for H-4 needs the full statute text.
