Some deductions have to be entered on the federal return.   Other, state specific deductions are entered on the state return.   What deduction are you trying to report in CA?

I wanted to deduct the cost of uniforms, which CA allows. There was no option for miscellaneous deductions when filing the state return in TurboTax. Searching TurboTax only yielded instructions to do it manually on form 540. There was no option to review the actual forms Turbotax used before paying/filing. Only after I paid did they allow me to view the forms. I will not likely use Turbotax anymore.
