State tax filing
Regarding Tax Year 2020 return....I file MFS in a community property state (CA). We do not file any other returns besides what's listed in the error so I was stumped. On my return, I had a negative adjustment for CA state tax withholdings. On my spouse's return, I had a positive adjustment. TurboTax only spits this error on my spouse's return. You can find this entry on the CA Tax Payments Worksheet Line 13 (Other state tax withholding).
Talked to a TurboTax rep today and he claimed it was because my spouse had a positive adjustment for CA withholdings. Stated CA probably wants to account for the additional tax added to my spouse's return. I'm still not convinced that's the reason as I'm not filing any other forms besides what's listed in the error. It seems like a software bug to me.
