You apply to the state for a nursing license by examination. You do not apply to a state for NCLEX. The NCLEX is but one step in the licensing process. You apply to the state where you intend to live and work, assuming you qualify for a visa with work rights. Technically all states are to require a valid SSN before issuing a professional license.
If you apply to IL with no intention of living or working there it's nothing more than a waste of time & money. The best state is the state where you desire to live and work. No one can answer that but you.
