So I found some what of a workaround. However now I feel like I will get audited...
The trick is after you have filed your federal return. You must save and duplicate the file (on Mac click turbotax file > Duplicate. On windows you can do CTRL + C on the file and CTRL + V to create a copy in the same directory) Once you do this be sure to rename it not to be confused.
Next open the new file and change it; there are certain fields that will not match your 2021 return. However I had the same CA refund amount. So I just filed it.
lately every year I have been using turbo tax that is some bug that is new that enrages me to the core. this will probably be the last year I use turbotax. As it has become trash software.
IF I GET AUDITED ITS YOUR FAULT TURBOTAX
