It depends. To handle California differences on the CA K-1 (565), you generally don't need to override federal numbers directly on Form 8825. Instead, California provides specific instructions for reporting these differences. Here's a better approach:
- Use Column (d) on Schedule K-1 (565): California differences are typically reported in Column (d) of the CA K-1 (565). This column reflects the California total amount, which may differ from the federal amount in Column (a).
- Adjustments on Form 568: For LLCs, these differences flow through to Form 568, the California LLC Return of Income. Ensure that the adjustments are properly reflected in the relevant sections of Form 568.
- Supplemental Guidelines: Refer to the FTB Publication 1001 for detailed guidance on California adjustments. This publication explains how to handle differences between federal and California tax laws. Please view the link below.
- "Turbo Tax" has specific input fields within the software to make these adjustments especially in the state interview section. You may make your adjustments there or on the forms themselves if you are using "Turbo Tax" software. This could streamline the process completely.
