I never did the state. I had started it and it showed a list of deduction you had to confirm that you had entered (which I did last week) and so I went back to check. And now I cannot get back to where I left off.

The screen is "Here's the income that California handles differently - if any of these apply to you, we'll work on them together (warm and fuzzy). Then we'll move on to the state tax breaks.
The next 5 or 10 screens were all NOT available when I ran the application last time - because I clicked on 'Federal Taxes' and went to review to see if I had entered the various deductions.
