My employer is in Illinois and I live in Ohio and work from a home office, which state do I pay income tax to?

1. I'm fairly sure that you pay it to the state where the check is being issued, which would be Illinois.
2. You file income and all taxes in the state you reside in....
3. Most of the time you pay state taxes in and to the state you live. If you got a W-2 it will show in the State section as to which state your taxes were sent. So you are most likley to pay Ohio. I used to do taxes for H&R Block.
4. You should pay taxes to where you perform your work, which is in Ohio.
