The error is coming from the IL credit form not matching state wages. You need to go back to the federal income section and select the W2 that has two copies. Edit and correct that problem.
Example:
w2 for VT work. Federal wages reported and VT wages reported
w2 for IL work - Federal wages and IL wages reported
w2 for VT company but worked in IL - Federal wages and VT wages reported. You do not report the IL wages here since all state wages go to your IL return. The company issued the forms to the states so they know how much money you got. You are entering the state section to show the reality of your situation. The program picks up these numbers and this is causing the issue with extra IL income input.
Once you remove the extra IL wages from the w2, then the numbers can add up properly for IL CR and to efile.
