Moved to IL from MA in September 2025

Hello, 

I moved to Chicago, IL from Boston, MA in September 2025. My income was sourced from MA until the end of August. Since September I have been paid by a federal research grant from the National Science Foundation, but moved to IL. 


Should I be filing taxes to MA from the Jan-Aug 2025 period and a separate one to IL from Sep - Dec 2025? 


Also, in order to use turbotax, do I need to have an IL state driver's license? Would that affect me filing a MA tax return in case I have to do one for Jan-Aug 2025 period? 

 

Thanks in advance!
