What form do I use If a get paid by an employer striaght without any deductions from my pay check and without a W@ form or having to fill out a w-4 form? Also I earned some interest income from a bank.

Getting paid off the books would mean that you received no form at all.
If you received a 1099-MISC, with no deductions, you are considered a contractor (rightly or wrongly) and must pay taxes on it. Your best best is a straight 1040, a Schedule C, and a Schedule SE. The last one is required. You can skip your own list of expenses on a C and also can use a shorter 1040, but you owe a lot more tax than if you had been given a W2, where the employer pays half your SS.

You will see a line on the 1040 for bank interest.

I received no forms at all just paid straight without any forms or deductions/taxes with held. Also It's a small amount like less than $1,000 plus a few dollars earned as interest income from a bank. How would I file in this situation?

Hello j:

If that's all you earned, you didn't make enough to file a tax return. Since no tax was withheld, there's nothing to get back, anyway.

So if I made a few hundred dollars "off the books" and less then 10 bucks in interest income, then bothe are insignificant amounts and I don't have to file since I'm not getting money back anyway.
