Yes, of course-nothing to hide. I am just trying to figure out how to properly fill out the CA 540 form. Turbotax asks for you "mailing address" at the beginning of the program-that is FL for me. Then later in the CA interview section it asks what your residence address is. Should my full year resident CA return show my CA address at the top and them my FL address in the principal residence section-or vice versa?
Principal Residence
If you are under 18 years old or have not filed a California resident income tax return in the prior year, then leave the county and principal/physical address fields blank.
Only complete this section if you are age 18 or older and you have filed a California resident income tax return in the prior year.
- County - Enter the county where you have your principal/physical residence on the date that you file your Form 540. If you reside in a foreign country at the time of filing, leave the county field blank.
- If your principal/physical residence address at the time of filing is the same as the address you provided at the top of this form, check the box provided on this line.
- If your principal/physical residence address at the time of filing is different from the address at the top of this form, provide the address of your principal/physical residence in the spaces provided.
- If you reside in a foreign country at the time of filing, enter the city, province or state, and country in the city field. Follow the country’s practice for entering the postal code. Do not abbreviate the country name.
