You are filing a MO return for $28,000 of income and an IL return for $30,000 of income. On the IL return, if $58,000 is showing in the total amount, you would enter $28,000 in the Other State Amount. If only the $30,000 is showing, enter zero.
The section you describe is for when you need a credit for tax paid to the other state on IL income. This does not describe your situation of all MO income.
