My income on my w2 is split between 2 different states even though I earned it all in one state….. why?
I live in Illinois and work in Iowa. On my w2 roughly 2/3 of my income is written down as Illinois state wages and the other 1/3 is written down as Iowa state wages. I’m confused on why this split is happening or how it was determined? I also owe SIGNIFICANTLY more in taxes than I anticipated and can’t figure out why because nothing on my w2 indicates that I should owe that much.
