A good majority of the United States is paying income taxes.
There are so many income tax forms out there that the IRS hands out.
Not so often, however, do we get to find an explanation as to what the forms are, and other things on the forms etc.
When they do explain it, however, how often do everyday people really understand how to properly fill it out? Lets take a look at some common government income tax forms.

1. Form W-4 is the basic form that most people will need to fill out.
   This form is for individuals who work for a company or business that they do not own.
   If someone works two or more jobs or are filing jointly with their spouse then it is possible to use this form for filing income taxes in either situation.
   It lets people individually itemize each tax deduction.
   
2. Form 1040 is probably one of the most, if not the most, common tax form people will have to fill out.
   This is a very long form, but the good thing is that it is easy to show every single detail.
   This way it will be easier for one to stay away from any problems and benefit more from the benefits of their tax decuctibles whether they are moving expenses, educator expenses etc.
   
3. The last form to take a look at would be the 941 form.
   This tax form is a quarterly revenue tax which is done once every quarter unlike the other two forms mentioned which from personal experience needs to be only filled out once annually.
   These types of government income tax forms are only done by employers and not the employee.
   It is used to show the quarterly profits or losses made by the company with a certain number of employees.
   This however does not to be done for people who hire agricultural (farm) employees or household employees.
   

There are many other income tax forms that the government issues but these three are fairly common to see done by employees and employers.
The first few times may be confusing, but it will become simpler as people become more experienced in paying their taxes.
