Wyoming Stipend Questions
What is the maximum housing stipend in Wyoming?
Stipend ceilings follow GSA per diem rates, set per city. Wyoming's average GSA lodging rate is $98/night — about $686/week or $2,979/month in tax-free housing allowance. Add the $59/day M&IE rate and the combined weekly ceiling is roughly $1,099. Individual cities run higher or lower.
Is my Wyoming stipend offer good?
Compare it to two numbers: the GSA ceiling for the assignment city (offers at the ceiling are maxed; offers well below have negotiating headroom) and the local one-bedroom rent (a stipend above rent is tax-free profit). The table on this page shows both for every Wyoming city we track.
Are travel nurse stipends taxable in Wyoming?
Stipends are federal-tax-free (and state-tax-free) when you maintain a qualifying tax home and work far enough away to need overnight lodging — the state doesn't change the IRS rules. Amounts above the GSA ceiling for your assignment ZIP are generally treated as taxable wages.
Which Wyoming cities have the best stipend margin?
Casper currently has the best margin we track in Wyoming — the monthly GSA lodging allowance runs $1,979 above average one-bedroom rent. See the full city table above and the GSA Rate Explorer for all 221 cities nationally.
