    Amazon stopped accepting affiliates from Illinois. You can open an LLC in Wisconsin or some other state which they accept and apply to Amazon Associates program as an LLC. Make sure to rent a PO Box or UPS box and use that address to apply.
    Good luck.

      What's the reason they're not accepting Illionis? Is this a new development and are there other states they don't accept?

        Illinois, like several other states, enacted a law that treats sales generated through affiliates in the state as "doing business" in the state for purposes of determining whether the seller has sufficient nexus to become subject to the state's sales tax laws. Having affiliates in Illinois would have required that Amazon collect sales taxes on all sales to Illinois residents, however those sales originated. To avoid that result, Amazon terminated all affiliates in Illinois.
