Wyoming Rental Application Form

What the Wyoming Rental Application is

This is a two-page Wyoming rental application for apartment and house rentals. The first page captures who you are and your housing, job, credit and vehicle history in grid form. The second page gathers references, a set of screening questions and your signed authorization for credit and criminal checks. It is a general template, not a form issued by the State of Wyoming, and the form itself says it is not a rental or lease agreement.

Who uses it

People applying to rent in Wyoming, and landlords or managers who want an application with built-in rental history questions such as whether rent was paid in full and whether notice was given. It suits private owners who screen applicants themselves.

What to have ready

• Your legal name, any former names, birth date, Social Security number and driver's license number
• The names, birth dates and relationships of everyone else who will live with you
• Addresses for your current, previous and prior homes, with the owner or manager's phone number and your dates there
• Employer names, addresses and phone numbers, your occupation, supervisor and monthly gross pay for up to three jobs
• Account balances for savings, checking, credit card and auto loan, and every household vehicle's plate number

Applicant and occupants

The top rows ask for first, middle and last name, birth date, Social Security #, driver's license #, other names used, and home and cell phone. List each other proposed occupant with birth date and relationship.

Rental/Residence History

Three columns cover your current, previous and prior residence. For each, fill in the street address, city, state and ZIP, last rent paid, owner or manager and phone, and reason for leaving. Then answer three yes or no style rows: was rent paid in full, did you give notice, and were you asked to move. Add your dates of residency and the name your utilities are billed under.

Employment, credit and vehicles

The Employment History grid asks for employer, address, phone, occupation, supervisor, monthly gross pay and dates for each job. Credit History asks for the institution and balance for savings, checking, credit card and auto loan. Vehicles covers make, model, color, year and plate for every vehicle owned by anyone moving in.

References, general questions and signature

Page 2 asks for a doctor, a lawyer and your nearest relative living elsewhere. Signing gives the landlord permission to contact them and, if you abandon the unit, lets the listed relative remove your belongings. The general questions cover late rent notices, smoking, how long you plan to stay, bankruptcy, move-in date, felony convictions, eviction notices, pets, problems with your current landlord, why you are moving, income you want considered, lawsuits and how you heard about the unit. Sign and date under Agreement and Authorization Signature. You can sign PDFs online the same way.

Wyoming rules on fees and deposits

These points come from Wyoming Statutes Title 1, Chapter 21, Article 12 (Residential Rental Property), in the Title 1 statutes published by the Wyoming Legislature, checked as of October 2026. They are general information.

• Application fees. Article 12 does not regulate rental application fees or set a maximum. This form says its processing fee is non-refundable, so confirm the amount before you apply.
• No deposit cap. Article 12 does not set a maximum security deposit.
• Nonrefundable portions. W.S. 1-21-1207 requires any rental agreement to state whether any part of a deposit is nonrefundable, with written notice to the renter when the deposit is taken.
• Return deadline. Under W.S. 1-21-1208, the deposit balance and an itemized list of deductions are due within 30 days after the rental agreement ends or within 15 days after the landlord receives your new mailing address, whichever is later. If there is damage to the unit, the period is extended by 30 days. The renter must tell the landlord where to send payment within 30 days after the agreement ends.
• Utility deposits. A separately identified utilities deposit must be refunded within 10 days after you show all utility charges are paid.

Common mistakes

• Forgetting to give your landlord a forwarding address when you move out, which affects the deposit timeline.
• Leaving the prior residence column empty when you have lived somewhere for a short time.
• Omitting a roommate's vehicle.
• Skipping the optional income question when you have income beyond your job that would help you qualify.
