You may be looking at the garbage PDF...especially if you filed Federal first, and then came back later and filed the IL forms.

The early IL-1040 forms used the 2016 tax rate.....and couldn't be filed because they hadn't been updated to the higher 2017 tax rate.  a lower refund would be consistent with the proper IL-1040 2017 tax rates.

Print/save the proper PDF as follows.
