Get your taxes done using TurboTax

TT Calif supports only Form 540 for Calif resident returns - Form 540 2EZ hasn't been supported for a couple of years or so now due to low usage.

Schedule P has a complicated set of rules for when it should be a part of a filed return. You've said there is no AMT (line 26 is 0) but there are other rules about: a credit(s) being reduced by tentative minimum tax (see Part III); the number of certain credits having > $0 amounts; components of Part I summing to < 0; other Part I components summing to > line 22; and a few others. So, if it's a part of your return then the FTB expects it to be there.
