State tax filing

Since you are using Download/CD, the easiest way to enter the addition is to use Forms mode.

  1. Tap Forms in the top right
  2. Find Schedule CA Adj
  3. Go to line 16a and enter your adjustment as an addition
  4. Tap Step-by-Step in the top right to get back to the interview mode

We are using the Schedule CA (540NR) since my wife is a part-year resident of CA and I am a non-resident of CA. We try to find the Schedule CA Adj. However, there is no line 16a. What we can see is as follow:

Schedule CA AdjSchedule CA Adj

 

Line 16 is for Self-employed SEP, SIMPLE, and qualified plans, which we do not think is reasonable to add my tax treat exemption amount from IL here.

 

If so, then which line should we use instead? BTW, I want to note that the tax treaty exemption is received by me in Illinois, should it be excluded from the CA amount?
