Moving to or from Wyoming with WIC

Moving TO Wyoming

Moving to Wyoming with WIC? Bring a Verification of Certification (VOC) from your old clinic and Wyoming Department of Health must honor it — you keep your certification without a new income screening until the period ends.

Leaving Wyoming

Before leaving Wyoming, ask your WIC clinic for a Verification of Certification (VOC). Every other state is federally required to accept it, so your certification continues after the move.

Common questions

Who runs WIC in Wyoming?

Wyoming Department of Health. The official page and application link are cited below — always act through them.

Does Wyoming make new residents wait for WIC?

No state may impose a residency waiting period for WIC. You apply as soon as you live in Wyoming; eligibility is decided on Wyoming's own rules.

Where do I report that I'm leaving Wyoming?

Before you leave Wyoming, ask your local WIC clinic for a Verification of Certification (VOC) card for each participant — federal rules (7 CFR 246.7) require your new state to accept it, so your WIC certification moves with you. Then contact a WIC clinic in your new state to transfer.
