State tax filing
Did you pay Iowa tax on your unemployment income as reported on your 1099-G?
If so, yes TurboTax would enter the income/tax paid to Iowa. If the unemployment was the only income in Iowa and the tax withheld is correct, you should 'break even' with Iowa, since Iowa/Illinois are not reciprocal as @TomD8 mentioned above.
Illinois will tax all of your income (as a Resident) but give you credit for tax paid to Iowa on the unemployment income. There will be a screen in the Illinois interview asking about 'tax paid to another state' which TurboTax may have already filled in for you if it was reported on a 1099-G.
If not, you will need to enter the amount of Iowa tax paid yourself.
If you find you owe Illinois, remember that tax withheld on other Illinois income may not be correct.
