Tax Withholding Question (NY & IL)

My partner and I are full-time employees working at different companies based in NYC but we both are living and working from home in Illinois. We moved from NYC to Illinois last year.

 

Since the move, my partner still gets taxed by NYC every pay period. She doesn’t seem to be taxed by Illinois at all according to her W-2 form.

 

For myself, I get taxed by only Illinois every pay period. On my W-2 form, it indicates I was taxed by both NYC and IL.

 

I’m confused about why after our move I’m being taxed by Illinois and my partner isn’t even though our situation is similar. Is it different due how each company treat their remote employees or is one of us being taxed incorrectly?
