The amount of Paid Family Leave Act income is nontaxable income in California.

 

You would use the amounts reported in Box 1 of your W-2 form that has the Paid Family Leave (PFL) amount.

 

(You may need to confirm the amounts with your employer as it sounds like they issued two W-2 forms including PFL. Essentially, you do not want to be taxed twiced for the same income on the federal return.)

 

On your input, I would recommend you verify your input as well.

 

Make sure you check the box for Paid family leave on the screen which asks "Do any of these uncommon situations apply to this W-2?"

 

PFL

 

You will also see an area to adjust your California amount if needed.  This will pull from your W-2 input in the federal interview section.
