Income Tax 

Most taxpayers have a choice of either taking the standard deduction or itemizing their deductions. 

The standard deduction is basically a flat-dollar, no-questions-asked reduction in your adjusted gross income. Taxpayers may itemize deductions because that amount of their expenses is higher than their standard deduction, which will result in less tax owed or a larger refund. Taxpayers cannot take the standard deduction if they itemize their deductions.
