The first income tax was instituted by Congress to help pay for the American Civil War. In 1863, the federal government collected the first income tax. This graduated tax was similar to the income tax we pay today. Those who earned $600 to $10,000 per year paid at a rate of 3 percent. Those who earned in excess of $10,000 paid 5 percent. A flat-rate tax was imposed in 1867.
Time Frame. Federal income tax is paid once per quarter. Your first payment is due by the end of the first quarter in which you earn taxable income.

If it first earns income between April 1 and May 31, payment is due by June 15; between June 1 and Aug. 31, by Sept. 15; and between Aug. 31 and Jan. 1, by Jan. 15.
