I have the CD version. If I remove the state return on File menu, won't it remove all three. He lived in NC and NY but not CA (where I live) in 2020.
I am thinking of handling it by just not clicking efile for california but clicking "I will file later". The CA return actually correctly states no income and states the last dates that he lived in CA which was 8/18/17-2/26/19. I just don't want to pay for efiling something which is not required.
One confusion may be that the company he works for has its accounting office in CA so that is the address on the W-2. He worked in Charlotte NC office Jan-March, at home in Charlotte Apr-Oct, then in NYC Nov-Dec. The W-2 shows state earnings in NC and in NY. It does not mention CA. So that would be a turbotax bug if that is the reason.
Thank you for your help. I appreciate having someone to talk this over with.
