Hi Annette,
Thanks for the reply!
1. My question for SMART check was not about this situation/year. I was asking for FUTURE, if I ever get another SMART Check error, am I able to continue filing my return or no?
2. To clarify, the amount that I changed was NOT the credit for IL that was calculated. It was the amount for the INPUTS that are used to calculate the credits (the prior page that you encounter or you can press "Edit" besides the credit amount to see it). You should see two orange columns for "Amount" and "Amount if different". In the row, it specifically states "Tax paid to Illinois" and then the amount. It does NOT state "credit for IL" in that prior section. The prior section is called "Income Taxed by Illinois"
Would you please look at the correct page I am referring to and confirm that I should indeed change it to the original W2 amount for IL in Box 17. Because the the taxes paid to Illinois should be what is listed on the W2 Box 17 correct?
Then based on that the credit is calculated on the next page.
