I believe the J-1 visa has an 18-month total time
limitation. Under those circumstances, and provided that
you do not intend to remain in Illinois indefinitely, you
would be a nonresident of Illinois because you are there for
a temporary purpose.
Your IL income is your earnings in Illinois, plus any income
from real or tangible personal property located in Illinois.
Income from intangibles such as interest, dividends, etc.
would not be Illinois source income.
