It would depend on whether you are a dependent or not. 

Perhaps you selected  "Someone else can claim me" in the TurboTax program. That would indicate that you are a dependent. 

 

According to the State of Illinois:

  • "For tax year beginning January 1, 2021, it is $2,375 per exemption.  If someone else can claim you as a dependent and your Illinois base income is $2,375 or less, your exemption allowance is $2,375. If income is greater than $2,375, your exemption allowance is 0."
