I am completing a tax return in ProSeries for a kid / dependent.

I have completed all entries in the return, and there are no errors. Same with the state (IL).

The only income is $11,700 of W-2 income.

However, I randomly thought it would be a good idea to check the 2 boxes on the federal return:

-Can the taxpayer be claimed as a dependent on someone else's return? (yes)

-Was the taxpayer claimed (yes)?

When I check these boxes, the Illinois income tax is increased, as the Illinois exemption is not allowed for a taxpayer who can be claimed as a dependent on another return.

I find it a bit concerning that these check boxes listed above were not prompted as errors.

Can someone assist with what I may not be considering / may have done wrong?
