Q. I lived in Illinois throughout 2021, but received unemployment benefits from California for the first 3 months of the year (where I previously lived). Is this considered earning income in another state?

A.  No.  Since you received the money while living in IL, the CA  unemployment benefits is not considered making money in another state. Answer no when that question come up in the personal info section of TT
