It depends on what "government" you are asking about. In the United States of America, the Federal government and most states levy and collect income taxes. So do many cities.


In the Federal Government, income taxes are levied and collected by the Internal Revenue Service, which is part of the Treasury Department. The Treasury department is part of the Executive Branch, and is reports to the President.
