State taxes for active military
In Illinois, do you have to file state taxes if you are active military? Last year they were filed. I am being told it is not necessary.

Here is the answer from the state site — and the link to the publication:
Illinois does not tax military pay earned by service persons. When completing Schedule M (for 2008 and after) or Schedule NR (for 2007 and earlier), you may subtract tax-exempt military pay that is included as income on Form IL-1040 or Schedule NR.
