Legal Question in Tax Law in Illinois

I filed state taxes for last year but at the time didn't realize I didn't have to. I filed for a refund of the money I paid and they replied that they were keeping part of it as penalty. If I didn't owe this to begin with how can I owe them penalty?

Best resource for an answer for your question is to call your state revenue department and ask for an explanation. There is probably a phone number on your notice: call it and ask for an explanation.
