Get your taxes done using TurboTax

When editing the California state return only mention of health insurance that I can find is a screen reading:

 

Since someone can claim you on their 2020 taxes, you don't have to complete Health Insurance

Based on your situation, we don't need any details on your 2020 coverage for your return. You can move on to the next section.

 

When I select Continue it proceeds and there is no further mention of insurance coverage.

 

It seems the software thinks that the health insurance info on the 540NR does not need to be filled out if you are a dependent. When I look over the PDF of the 540NR it does indicate that I am a dependent on Line 6, and Line 91 where you would either indicate full health coverage or your ISR penalty is blank. 

 

I get the error:

/CA-Return/CA-ReturnData/CAForm540NR/ISRPenalty/PaymentsAfterISRPenalty - Healthcare coverage information in the return is missing or invalid. Please double check your entries.

 

Which from what I understand means that although I am a dependent, I do still need to indicate on Line 91 that I had full coverage or whatever my ISR penalty is. Turbotax, however, does not seem to allow me to give any health insurance information since it thinks it's unnecessary as I am filing as a dependent.

 

It looks like the screen you show under Did you have health insurance coverage in 2020? is exactly what I need, but Turbotax is not letting me fill out that information.

 

Please let me know if there is any way I can get around this.
