    4. Personal income tax is another name for individual income tax. An individual's earnings, salaries, and other sources of income are subject to this kind of income tax. This tax is often a state-imposed tax. Most people do not pay taxes on all of their income because of exemptions, deductions, and credits. The IRS provides a number of tax credits and deductions that can be used by taxpayers to lower their taxable income. A tax credit lowers your income tax liability whereas a deduction raises your taxable income and the tax rate used to determine your tax.
