Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Unless your employer specifically acted to establish a bona fide office at your telecommuting location, you will continue to owe New York State income tax on income earned while telecommuting.  You will also have to file an IL tax return taxing the same income.  However, you will get a credit for the NY taxes that you paid on your IL tax return.  The credit will not be larger than the amount you owe to IL.

 

Note:  Prepare the NY tax return first so that the credit will carry onto the IL return.
