$75,000 salary, single filer, 2026.
A Wyoming paycheck has three tax lines: federal income tax, Social Security and Medicare. The calculator works out a full year of each deduction from the 2026 rules and divides by your number of paychecks; tap any line to see the arithmetic and its source.
Federal income tax applies to wages after pre-tax deductions and the standard deduction ($16,100 single, $24,150 head of household and $32,200 married filing jointly in 2026). Social Security takes 6.2% of wages up to $184,500; Medicare takes 1.45% of all wages, plus 0.9% withheld above $200,000.
Wyoming take-home pay at common salaries

Reading your Wyoming pay stub
Payroll software rarely uses the same names as tax law. Here is how the lines in the breakdown above usually appear on a Wyoming pay stub, using a $75,000 salary paid every two weeks.
Overtime in Wyoming
Energy, mining and construction jobs in Wyoming often include long overtime weeks. The state never taxes that pay, and the federal overtime deduction lets you subtract the half-time premium — up to $12,500 a year ($25,000 joint) for 2025–2028. Social Security and Medicare still apply. Switch the calculator to Hourly and enter your overtime hours, or use the overtime calculator.
Where Wyoming makes up the money
Wyoming has neither a personal nor a corporate income tax. Severance taxes on coal, oil and natural gas, plus sales and property taxes, fund the state. None of them comes out of your paycheck.
