@Jetfan No...the CA State Return actually pulls that number off the 1040 apparently - so you have to put zeros on the 1040 and refile just the CA and mine was accepted then. I had to open the 1040 via "Forms" and find the Charitable Contributions and zero that out. Federal was submitted and accepted on 2/15 with it - and as others have said - TurboTax should be handling this on the CA submission - but they aren't. Making it zero did not change my state refund amount - so CA doesn't use that amount anyway.
