I registered my LLC in Illinois because my accountant is in Chicago. I'm a non-resident alien from Nigeria running a web development agency. My clients are all over the world but I have two clients in Illinois. My total revenue is about $200,000, with about $30,000 coming from the Illinois clients.

Do I need to file an Illinois return? What's the tax rate? Is there a special LLC tax in Illinois?
