Calif. partnership return rejected

California partnership return rejected. TurboTax says:

Description of error:

Form 565, APB [TaxPeriodBeginDate], APE [TaxPeriodEndDate] and FEIN [FEIN] from Schedule Q cannot match a previously accepted return unless Schedule Q Amended return [AmendedReturn] or Superseded return [SupersededReturn] box is checked.

Of course there is no previously accepted return. TurboTax says to verify the FEIN, which is correct. Also I don't know what Schedule Q is. There is no Schedule Q in my return.

If you verified that the info you entered is correct and you e-file again, the California e-file servers will almost certainly reject your return for the same reason. In this case, your only option is to print and mail your return.

The usual cause for this e-file rejection is when another taxpayer filed a return using the wrong FEIN. That you didn't have Schedule Q on your return is a definite clue this is what happened.
