turboTax Business 2021 is requesting a California Secretary of State File Number which General Partnerships are not required to have. I have a 9 digit identification number for the general partnership. TurboTax will not validate a 9 digit number and will not transmit the file. dropping the first 2 zeros makes the number a seven digit number and then validates....but...this is ridiculous that this has been an issue for 2 years.
All businesses (since 2015) must file electronically.
I prefer to use the number since using all zeros will confuse the Franchise Tax Board.
Has anyone found a solution?
