Does Wyoming tax Social Security?
No state income tax
No. Wyoming has no individual income tax.
What State of Wyoming says
We do not paraphrase the rule from memory. This is the state's own wording, copied from the page linked below it:
“Unlike other states, Wyoming does not possess an individual or corporate income tax.”
Federal tax is a separate question
Even though Wyoming does not tax it, the IRS can still tax part of your Social Security on your federal return. Whether it does depends on your other income. Our taxable Social Security calculator follows the IRS worksheet line by line, and this guide explains the rule.
You can ask Social Security to withhold federal tax from each payment. State rules change with new laws, so check with State of Wyoming before you file.
