So help me understand. You are filing a resident return for Illinois and a nonresident return for Arizona, right?
Did you enter the Arizona first? It is normal (not universal though) to enter the nonresident state first so that the state tax can be calculated and brought back to the resident state as a tax credit (line 15 on IL-1040).
I see in my test that 7,100 appears in both columns A and B on line 20 of Schedule CR.
So I go to look at the instructions for line 20 for Schedule CR, and I see
"Line 20: Health savings account deduction Enter the amount from Column A."
While other lines here ask you to enter the prorated amount of the expenses from out of state, for line 20, you are just told enter the A column into B.
Since the HSA deduction is clearly an Illinois deduction (you contributed the money to the HSA while a resident of Illinois), for whatever reason, the Illinois instructions wants you to put the same amount in column B.
My only guess is that this will come out in the wash so it won't affect the final result.
Lacking any reason to disregard the state's instructions, I would say, don't worry about it.
