Wyoming has no state income tax in 2026; its constitution (Article 15, Section 18) requires any income tax to credit sales and property taxes paid, which makes one impractical. No employee payroll deductions apply, so withholding is federal only: income tax, Social Security at 6.2% up to $184,500, and Medicare at 1.45%. Figures follow IRS Publication 15-T and the Wyoming Department of Workforce Services.

How Wyoming paycheck taxes work

Three tax lines come out of a Wyoming paycheck: federal income tax, Social Security (6.2% up to $184,500), and Medicare (1.45%). Wyoming collects no state income tax on wages, and no Wyoming city or county adds one. Anything else on your stub is your own election: 401(k), health premiums, HSA, and similar benefits.

Unemployment insurance in Wyoming is paid entirely by employers under W.S. 27-3-503, on a 2026 taxable wage base of $33,800 per worker. Wyoming has no disability, paid-leave, or other employee payroll premium, so the state adds no line to your stub.

Federal income tax follows IRS Publication 15-T and your Form W-4, and Medicare adds 0.9% on wages over $200,000. A bonus paid on its own is withheld at the 22% federal flat rate with no Wyoming line. Wyoming has no reciprocity agreements because it has no income tax to share, so wages earned working in another state follow that state's withholding rules.

Wyoming paycheck FAQ

How much is taken out of a paycheck in Wyoming?

Federal income tax, Social Security at 6.2% of wages up to $184,500, and Medicare at 1.45% (plus 0.9% on wages over $200,000). Wyoming withholds nothing for the state, and no city or county levies a wage tax. The quick answer above shows a single filer on $60,000 paid biweekly, and the calculator recomputes it for your pay, filing status, and pre-tax deductions.

Why doesn't Wyoming have a state income tax?

Article 15, Section 18 of the Wyoming Constitution requires any income tax to give credit for sales and property taxes paid, which makes one impractical. No Wyoming city or county taxes wages either. Employers withhold only federal income tax, Social Security, and Medicare from a Wyoming paycheck under the 2026 federal rates.

Is Wyoming unemployment insurance taken out of my paycheck?

No. Wyoming unemployment insurance is paid entirely by employers under W.S. 27-3-503, on the first $33,800 of each worker's wages for 2026. There is no employee share, and Wyoming has no other employee payroll deduction, so a Wyoming stub shows no state line at all.

Do Cheyenne, Casper, or other Wyoming cities tax wages?

No. No Wyoming city or county levies a local income tax, so a paycheck in Cheyenne, Casper, Jackson, or anywhere else in the state has the same three tax lines: federal income tax, Social Security, and Medicare. The calculator has no local field for Wyoming because there is nothing local to enter.
