https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/taxes/discussion/ca-540-schedule-ca-side-1-line-8a/01/2544959#M911678 <P>Confused on this line, it is showing the NOL from business as a positive amount, but on the federal form 1040 it is a negative amount; also how it shows when going through the software. I submitted my returns to the state already and despite TT showing me due a refund, the state is looking at this as added income and thus I owe to the state. Looking at my 2020 return the line shows the amount as a negative. So, can someone please clarify, and how to fix if needed. I can't edit the line in forms.</P> Mon, 09 Mar 2026 09:11:18 GMT jdubblep 2026-03-09T09:11:18Z https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/taxes/discussion/ca-540-schedule-ca-side-1-line-8a/01/2544959#M911678 <P>Confused on this line, it is showing the NOL from business as a positive amount, but on the federal form 1040 it is a negative amount; also how it shows when going through the software.
