Couple questions:
1) Looks like Turbo Tax isn't supporting efiling FORM 568 again this year. Can one efile CA return on turbo tax without it (ie delete it ) and then mail Form 568 in separately with a waiver?
2) Anyone know when form 568 will be ready?
The form is scheduled to be released on 2/25/2021, but e-file is not supported.

Currently 568 is available on the FTB website, TurboTax shows 568 should be available on the 2/25. I was able to fill out my 568 form while using TurboTax Self-Employed online. When I went to efile, I got an email that submitted both my CA personal and CA LLC filing. Later that evening I received an email that my CA LLC filing was accepted. I waiting to hear back from TurboTax if my LLC filing actually went through, or if there is some glitch. When I went to download a PDF of my tax documents, it shows 568 filled out but the words "Do Not File, Not Final Form" stamped on every page I am not sure what is going on.
Yep that's what worries me, that "Do not File" on all the Form 568 pages when you go into Forms section. Especially since Turbo Tax says as well tha the form is only ready 2/25 and that it doesnt support efile. I too have the Self Employed turbo tax.
I'll keep you posted on what I find out. I may call FTB on Friday to see if they did indeed receive by 568 filing.
JP4343,
I just saw this posted on another forum post.
In 2020, you can electronically file your Form 568 when you file your personal income tax return as long as you only have one Form 568.
If you have multiple Form 568 forms, you will not be able to electronically file using the program.

I'm still going to follow up with FTB to make sure they did receive it.
Hey did it end up getting e-filed? I'm going through a nightmare scenario where I can't figure out who/how to e-file form 568 . I'm hoping TurboTax will solve my problems
@Anonymous_ the link you provided now says its supported and efile is supported . Is this confirmed by anyone?

You should contact phone support if you are experiencing issues.
What is the TurboTax phone number? (intuit.com)
Otherwise, as has been mentioned, you can only e-file one set of forms and you cannot e-file the state return without the federal.
Hi! Can you please share how to follow up with FTB to make sure they did received the Form 568?
Here is a link to the contact info for the California FTB. You can contact them in many ways, or set up an online account with their tax portal: CA Franchise Tax Board
