State Guide · Wyoming Resident / Idaho Employer
Living in Wyoming,
Working for a Idaho Company
Your tax situation changes significantly depending on whether you work from home or commute to Idaho. Here's exactly what applies to you.
🏠 If You Work From Home in Wyoming (Fully Remote)
Withholding
Your employer should NOT withhold Idaho taxes. Since you work remotely from Wyoming which has no income tax, you owe $0 in state income tax. Verify Idaho taxes are not being withheld.
Filing
No state income tax returns required in either state.
🏢 If You Commute to Idaho (In-Office)
Withholding
Your employer will typically withhold Idaho state taxes for days you physically work there.
Filing
File a Nonresident Return with Idaho to report income earned there. Then file a Resident Return in Wyoming and claim a credit for taxes paid to Idaho — so you are not double-taxed.
Because tax situations — especially surrounding remote work — can be complex, verify your specific W-2 reporting by consulting a tax professional or your employer's HR payroll system.
Ready to file?
Multi-state returns can be complex. TurboTax handles both states in one workflow, or connect with a CPA who specializes in remote workers.
