IL has been double taxing for the last couple of years. Joys of living in a bankrupt state
I had that problem every year until I had a CPA help file my taxes. I don’t know what she did differently but I feel your pain.
My first year I paid it because I was young and dumb and figured I had screwed something up on TurboTax. The next 2 years I had HR Block file taxes and they helped me fight it and get my money back.
This has happened to me every year traveling for work - I appeal each time with a letter from my firm and another copy of my w2. It has been rejected and my firm reimbursed me for the double tax and it has been accepted no issues other years. Likely this depends on who reviews it from the state of IL.
The only way to avoid IL taxes is to move out of the state, and sometimes that doesn’t even work.
Stay here, and Pritzker will fine you $500 for not broadcasting how generous he is with 2.2 cents in gas tax relief paid for with your money.
