What we publish for Wyoming

• State exemption system (opt-out vs federal election)

  This state has opted out of the federal exemption list for debtors whose applicable exemption law is this state's law. Which state's law applies is set by 11 U.S.C. § 522(b)(3)(A) from where the filer was domiciled before filing, not from where they live today — and § 522(b)(3) still allows the federal list where that domicile rule would otherwise leave a debtor with no exemptions at all.

• Means test median income

  Published medians for 10 household sizes. A comparison, not a decision.

• Which federal court hears your case

  One federal district covers the whole state. It publishes no county-by-county division assignment, so filing location is not fixed by county.

• Local court practice (341 format, plan form, no-look fee)

  Verified for 1 of 1 district.

• Tools using Wyoming data

  10 calculators run on this state's published figures.
