Not true. For Illinois income taxes (as with other states), the issue is not where you live, it's where you actually work.
The work income of a non-resident of Illinois who never physically works within Illinois is not subject to Illinois income tax. See Section 304 (a)(2) (B) of the Illinois Income Tax Act:

Otherwise, every nationwide employee of a corporation based in Chicago, such as Boeing or United Airlines, would be paying taxes to Illinois.
