I am a full time resident of Illinois but work full time in Missouri. My payroll department I didn't need to withhold Illinois taxes but when I started to file my state taxes, I am looking at a good size refund for Missouri but a huge amount owed to Illinois. I paid taxes to Missouri for wages earned in Missouri, I live in Illinois. Why would I have to pay taxes on earned wages twice? That doesn't seem right?

Not A Product Question

As an Illinois resident, you must file Form IL-1040 if you were required to file a federal income tax return.

You will also need to file a non-resident tax return for Missouri as well.

Please see TurboTax FAQ: How do I file a nonresident state return?

So I’m paying tax twice because that’s what it amounts to. I get a $1000 refund from Missouri but owe $1600 to Illinois … seems off to me still. Like I missed a credit or something.
