Illinois' filing requirement for non-residents requires some calculations. Here's the rule:
As a nonresident, you must file Form IL-1040 and Schedule NR if
- you earned enough taxable income from Illinois sources to have a tax liability ( i.e., your Illinois base income from Schedule NR, Step 5, Line 46, is greater than your Illinois exemption allowance on Schedule NR, Step 5, Line 50), or
- you want a refund of any Illinois Income Tax withheld in error. You must attach a letter of explanation from your employer.

TT will generate a non-resident IL tax return if you indicate on the Personal Info page that you had other state income from Illinois.
