Turbotax State Review is asking me to review my Credit for my Illinois Property Taxes. It presents 2 dollar figures which I have already entered. The State Review does not clear.

    we can't see the ICR form but 4 things are needed

    1) total Illinois real estate taxes paid in 2024 (other state's real estate taxes don't count)

    2) the county in Illinois for which the taxes were paid

    3) the Property Identification Number (PIN)

    4) The amount, if any, deducted as a business expense.

    here are the ICR instructions that might help

    https://tax.illinois.gov/forms/incometax/currentyear/individual/il-1040-schedule-icr-instr.html 

    you may need to contact support to review what is taking place

     

    Turbotax also asks these additional questions

    1) was your 2023 principal residence in Illinois

    2) did you own that residence

    3) was the property your [personal residence

    4) did you pay your (2023( taxes in 2024

    I was able to resolve with TT support. We had to go back to my Federal return and enter info regarding property tax even though I chose not to itemize.
