"Check This Entry" California state Schedule E error message; but it's a royalty, not a rental.
Hello! I get no error messages when running the final check on my federal return, but when I run the final check on my California state return, I get the error message below (please note that I've whited out the entity name):
Please note that I get from an entity a K-1 that has in box 6 an amount for royalties. It's from a copyright. So in the federal interview I identify it as such:
Further down on the Schedule E worksheet pictured earlier is the total royalty amount in section 4. But it's as if the error screen wants me to pretend like it's a real estate property or something.
Final note: I get only one K-1, and there's only this one royalty. I have no rental property income at all.
I look forward to your advice and appreciate your reading this very much. Thank you!
