State tax filing

Yes, the Schedule CA should have your State Refund amount in Column A (Federal) and Column B (Subtractions), since it is not taxable in either if you didn't Itemize Deductions.

 

Since we can't see your return in this forum, I would suggest you go through the 1099-G interview questions again.

 

If you're using TurboTax Online, try closing the program, clear your Cache and Cookies and revisit that section.

 

Whether your state refund is taxable depends on your tax situation. Generally, if you didn’t deduct state and local income taxes last year as an itemized deduction, your state and/or local refund is not taxable.

 

If you deducted your state and local income taxes last year and received a state tax refund last year then your total state tax refund that you received from the previous year may be taxable.
