First, the HSA contribution that is with code W on your W-2 and any other employer contribution that was not part of the code W amount will appear on the screen "Here's the income that California handles differently" early in the CA interview. This amount appears (unless you change it in the CA interview) on form CA (540NR) on line 1h, column C.
If you made any contributions directly to the HSA custodian (not through your employer), this amount appears on the same form, line 13, column A.
All three of these amounts will end up on the 540NR line 16 to be added back to CA taxable income.
Can you see your California return? What are the numbers on form CA (540NR) on line 1h, column C and on line 13, column A? While we are at it, was the code W amount in box 12 on your W-2 $420 ( I want to make sure I understand this)?
What was your HDHP coverage in 2022? Family? Self-only? Partial Year?
Also, by chance, did you have an excess HSA contribution in 2021 that carried over to 2022? If so, how much was it?
