You can also try to use another browser to complete your return. 

 

Then, please follow the instructions below:

  1. Open your return.
  2. Click State on the left-hand side.
  3. Continue through the return.
  4. Click Revisit next to Property Tax Credit on the page Take a look at Illinois credits and taxes.
  5. On the page Credit for property taxes, answer yes to all four questions, if applicable in your situation.
  6. On the page Property information, enter the county and the PIN. Please ensure the PIN comes from your property tax bill. 
  7. On the page Property taxes, enter the portion, if any, that was not for your principal residence in Illinois. Then enter the total of any property taxes that were deductible on your federal return as a business expense for a business, rental, or farm, whether or not you actually took the deduction. I entered $0 for both boxes.
