Military retirement pay in Wyoming

Varies

Does Wyoming Tax Military Retirement Pay?

Short answer: No. Wyoming has no state personal income tax, so military retired pay is not taxed. With no income tax, Wyoming relies more on sales and property taxes; older homeowners get this break: Long-term homeowner exemption: 50% off for owners 65+ who paid Wyoming property tax 25+ years (through 2026).

Military retired pay is taxable federally; VA disability compensation isn't taxed federally or by any state.

Records to keep: Keep your state return, W-2s and 1099s (1099-R, SSA-1099), and any state credit worksheets. Check your state revenue department's current-year instructions before you file.
