I believe that if you have a fund in which 50% or more of the items are generating interest and dividends that would be tax-free to an individual, that the interest and dividends as a whole are tax-free in California.   See R&TC §17145   But, of course, if you have multiple income sources within the HSA, then you will have to draw up a list and calculate the taxable and tax-free items, and enter the net amount in the CA state interview.   Also note that CA taxes all capital gains as ordinary income, so you don't have to worry about short-term and long-term gains. Just lump them all together and enter them in the CA state interview.

I've tried that, and deleted the 1099-R that the online version "sees", and then re-entered everything manually.  I click on the 1099-INT and fill in the information, and it still thinks it's a 1099-R.

Just updating to let users know that this behavior is also present in Business 2024 at least for 8453-C.  The signed PDF is listed in Attachments.  However, the uploaded file is not in the preview and saved copies.   Uploading and transmitting are separate processes.  So, the former does not guarantee the latter.  Showing the correct file in the preview and saved PDFs provides feedback to the user that the upload worked.  Indeed, this is expected behavior for most users.   On a related note, Business 2024 sometimes also displays a successful upload when it did not happen.  (E.g., entering an incorrect file path/location.)  Hopefully, improvements can be made.
