Wyoming Paycheck Calculator

A paycheck in Wyoming skips one whole layer of tax: Wyoming is one of nine states with no state income tax on wages, so only federal income tax and FICA come out. On a $65,000 salary, a single filer in Wyoming takes home about $54,408 in 2026 — tied for the highest take-home in the country. The calculator above is already set to Wyoming; change the salary, filing status, or deductions and the estimate updates as you type.
2026 Wyoming income tax at a glance
Wyoming does not tax wage income at the state level, and it has no state standard deduction or brackets to work through because there is nothing to apply them to. The only taxes in a Wyoming paycheck estimate are federal:
- State income tax on wages: none — $0 at every salary in this calculator.
- Federal income tax on $65,000 (single): $5,620.00, using the 2026 standard deduction of $16,100.
- FICA on $65,000: $4,972.50 — $4,030.00 Social Security plus $942.50 Medicare.
- Take-home on $65,000: $54,408 a year, the highest figure in the country in this data.
Federal rules are identical in every state, so a Wyoming paycheck is the cleanest possible case: gross pay minus federal income tax minus FICA is the whole story. The exclusions in the methodology note below — local taxes and small state payroll programs where they exist — still apply.
Take-home pay in Wyoming by salary
Estimated 2026 take-home pay in Wyoming at six common salary levels — same method as the calculator above, single filer, no pre-tax deductions:
| Salary | Federal tax | FICA | State tax | Take-home (annual) | Take-home (biweekly) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| $40,000 | $2,620 | $3,060 | $0 | $34,320 | $1,320.00 |
| $50,000 | $3,820 | $3,825 | $0 | $42,355 | $1,629.04 |
| $65,000 | $5,620 | $4,973 | $0 | $54,408 | $2,092.60 |
| $75,000 | $7,670 | $5,738 | $0 | $61,593 | $2,368.94 |
| $100,000 | $13,170 | $7,650 | $0 | $79,180 | $3,045.38 |
| $150,000 | $24,734 | $11,475 | $0 | $113,791 | $4,376.58 |
Single filer, no pre-tax deductions. FICA is 6.2% Social Security (on wages up to the 2026 wage base of $184,500) plus 1.45% Medicare; none of these salaries reaches the additional 0.9% Medicare tax. Annual figures are rounded to the nearest dollar, matching our state-by-state study.
For scale: the same $65,000 salary keeps $54,408 in Texas, which has no wage tax, and $49,550 in Oregon, the highest-tax state in this data at this salary. Wyoming sits between those poles — its state tax on $65,000 works out to about 0 of gross pay. The full ranking is in our Real Hourly Wage by State 2026 study.

Compare Wyoming with other states
State tax is the one part of a paycheck that changes when you cross a state line.

How this estimate works
Federal tax uses the 2026 IRS brackets and the $16,100 single standard deduction; FICA is 6.2% Social Security up to the $184,500 wage base plus 1.45% Medicare. Wyoming adds no state income tax on top. The estimate excludes local income taxes, state disability or paid-leave payroll taxes, and credit phaseouts, so an actual Wyoming pay stub can differ. Every assumption is listed on our methodology page, and sources cites each 2026 figure.
