I live and file in CA.  I sold a rental house and 3% was withheld for Franchise Tax Board Real Estate Withholding by the escrow company.  I have not received a Form 592-B or Form 593.  Where and how do I enter the amount withheld? 

Best answer by

Enter the amount withheld in the "Withholding not already entered on a W-2 or 1099" interview.

This interview is found under Federal Taxes > Deductions and Credits > Other Income Taxes > Other Income Taxes paid in 2016.

See the attached screenshot to see what the entry screen will look like.

I think this is out dated.  THis is required by the state and needs to placed somewhere

The info is not outdated ... the  state withholding is entered in the federal section and will be carried to the state automatically.  

 

Look in the Deductions & Credits section ...
