State tax filing
Unfortunately, the Illinois-Iowa reciprocal agreement does not extend to unemployment compensation. See this:
Also, Iowa's rule is that unemployment benefits that relate to employment in Iowa are taxable by Iowa. See item 12-Nonresidents in this reference:
So your daughter has to file in both states (the unemployment is also taxable by her resident state), but she can claim a credit on her IL return for the taxes paid to IA, so she won't be double-taxed. In TurboTax, be sure to complete the non-resident state return before the home state return, so that the program can properly apply the credit.
