You have the right idea if your goal is to do unemployment in IA and income tax for Illinois.
However, if the employer has no presence in Illinois are they really required to withhold Illinois income tax?
I would think that they would have still have to have withholding for IA?
Forgive me if I don't have that quite right. I'm in Washington state that has no income tax so I'm not entirely sure what the tax requirements withholding requirements are when the business and the resident states both have income tax. I do know if I have an Idaho employer with a Washington resident employer, they have to do Idaho income tax withholding.
