Property tax refund program.
HB 4 amends Wyoming's property tax refund program to adjust eligibility criteria and refund amounts. It sets income limits at 125%-175% of the county or state median household income (updated annually) and caps household assets at $150,000 per adult member (adjusted yearly for cost of living). Refunds are calculated as a percentage of the maximum allowable amount - ranging from 100% down to 5% - based on how closely an applicant's income aligns with the median threshold. Counties may also adopt optional local refund programs with similar income limits, subject to county-specific rules. The bill updates existing rules for verifying income via federal tax returns and requires refunds to be issued by September 30.
