Wyoming rental application rules to know

• •Wyoming has no state law capping application or screening fees, requiring a receipt, or requiring a refund, so the amount is set by the market and is generally nonrefundable.
• •There is no limit on how much a landlord can charge as a security deposit, no requirement to hold it in a separate account, and no interest is ever owed on it (W.S. § 1-21-1208).
• •If any part of your deposit is nonrefundable, the lease must say so and the landlord must give you separate written notice of that fact at the time you pay it (W.S. § 1-21-1207).
• •A landlord must return your deposit, with an itemized list of any deductions, within 30 days after the lease ends or 15 days after you give a forwarding address, whichever is later, plus up to 30 extra days if there is damage (W.S. § 1-21-1208). A separate utilities deposit has its own faster refund rule (W.S. § 1-21-1208(b)).
• •If a landlord unreasonably fails to return your deposit, you can recover the full deposit and court costs, but Wyoming law adds no double or triple damages, a weaker penalty than most states (W.S. § 1-21-1208).
• •Wyoming does not protect source of income, so a landlord may legally decline a Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher, and no Wyoming city has a source-of-income ordinance.
• •Wyoming has no state fair housing act adding protected classes, so claims rely on the federal seven, though Laramie, Jackson, and Casper add local sexual orientation and gender identity protections in housing.
• •For unpaid rent or a lease violation a landlord must serve a 3-day Notice to Quit (notice to vacate) before filing an eviction, and Wyoming law gives no statutory right to cure by paying; there is no statutory notice period to raise rent on a month-to-month tenancy (W.S. § 1-21-1003).
