My Illinois state taxes keeps getting rejected due to an incorrect AGI. I was unemployed briefly last year as well. However, I don't know what AGI use/where to find it.

My illinois state taxes keeps getting rejected due to an incorrect AGI. I've tried inputting the AGI TurboTax gives me for the 2019 year but that keeps getting rejected, I've also used the number given to me in my 1099G form. I have my unemployment form for Illinois but it doesn't look like an actual tax document. I am unsure of what to use to find my AGI? I've never had this issue before and I have a feeling it's because I was unemployed briefly.

IL wants the 2019 state AGI. That is not on the 1099-G. Look on your 2019 state tax return.

Illinois tax form asks for AGI. I assume this is the state value, not federal. However, MY iLINOIS NET IS DIFFERENT THAN MY ILLINOIS BASE. WHICH DO I USE?

You should use the IL base income. Your IL base income is Federal AGI with any IL specific additions/subtractions.
