How Your Wyoming Paycheck Works
The Cowboy State, where the bison roam free and the skies stretch wide. Wyoming, with its stunning landscapes and rich history, is a place where the Old West meets modern industry. From the vibrant city of Cheyenne to the rugged wilderness of Yellowstone National Park, this state is a breathtaking sight to behold.
Amidst all this natural beauty, there is also a bustling economy that keeps the state running smoothly. One important aspect of this economy is how paychecks work in Wyoming.
There are several items that will be withheld from your paycheck.
Federal income tax is a progressive tax that applies to your taxable income, which is your gross income minus certain adjustments and deductions. The tax rate depends on your filing status and income level. Tax brackets are usually adjusted every year according to various factors like inflation. We have an entire section dedicated to federal income tax below.
Your employer will withhold federal income tax from your paycheck based on the information you provide on Form W-4, Employee’s Withholding Certificate. This form tells your employer certain details about yourself and whether you want any additional withholding.
The federal government also levies another tax called FICA, which stands for Federal Insurance Contributions Act. This funds Social Security and Medicare programs. These are payroll taxes that both employers and employees pay. The Social Security tax rate is 6.2% of your wages up to a certain limit ($147,000 in 2022), and the Medicare tax rate is 1.45% of your wages with no limit. If you earn a high income above a limit, you will also pay an additional 0.9% Medicare surtax.
Your employer will withhold FICA taxes from your paycheck and match them with their own contributions with the exception of the surtax, if present.
Wyoming is one of the few states in the Union that does not have personal income tax. This means that you will not have to pay any state or local income taxes on your earnings, which is great for your paycheck.
However, Wyoming does have other taxes that may affect your wallet, such as sales tax and property tax. These taxes are not withheld from your paycheck but are paid separately by consumers or property owners. Even considering these, the tax burden is generally quite low so your income may go further here when compared to other places.
In addition to taxes, you may also choose to have some of your pay set aside for benefits or expenses that you opt for or agree to pay. For example, you may pay for health insurance, contribute to a retirement plan, or donate to a charity through your paycheck. These are typically part of a benefits package and they may be pre-tax or post-tax. Pre-tax items lower your taxable income and your tax liability, while post-tax items are taken out of your net pay after taxes are withheld.
The end result, after all these withholdings, is your net pay, which is the amount that you actually receive in your bank account.
