The general rule is Individuals can claim a credit against personal income tax liability for part of the real property taxes paid during the tax year on a principal residence in Illinois.
Therefore property tax credit will be used to offset your Illinois Income Tax on line 14 of your Illinois Form IL-1040. Review your state return to see if it shows income tax on line 14, if it doesn't you won't get the property tax credit since this is a non-refundable credit that is used to offset your tax liability.
