living in Florida but worked 3 months in Illinois and got a 1099-NEC

[stacey9554]

I live and go to college in Florida and worked 3 months in Illinois, who has state taxes.  I received a 1099-NEC from the job and made 9,000.  My total income for the year was 10,000, with the other 1,000, coming from a w2 due to a Florida job I had.

The 1099-NEC I received had the state of FL listed in Box 6 even though I temporary lived and worked in Illinois for 3 months.  The Illinois state tax looks to be 4.5%.

Am I required to pay Illinois state tax if I only made 9000 working in Illinois?

Yes.  You will need to file a return.  The IL exemption allowance is $2,775 for 2024.  Since you made more than that you will need to file a 2024 NR Illinois return.  You will ONLY include the income you earned from IL on the return.  When you walk through the state questions you will be able to remove the FL income so you are not taxed on that $1,000 only the $9,000.
