Thank you. I now have gotten credit on my Il return for taxes paid to MS. What I did was I deleted the MS info and started over. The critical thing was entering the MS income in your step 7. But why did I not enter anything there the first time? If you look at the screen shot in your reply to me you will see a Note: and that note says to only enter gambling winnings from another states LOTTERY. My winnings were from SLOTS.
I think those directions should be reviewed because by following those instructions I could not get the IL credit.
I want to thank all that responded. I was pleasantly surprised at how fast you responded to my questions. My experience with help forums I've used in the past were never this positive. Great job.
