How to manually file California 540NR

I'm manually filing a tax return for the first time (I was late filing my 2022 taxes so i have to do it manually). As part of that, I need to file California Form 540-NR. When i was preparing my tax return and got it ready to be printed, the 540-NR printed out twice. I'm a little bit confused why it did that. 

Am i supposed to file it with my federal tax return?

You only need to file one copy of your Form 540-NR.  You do need to attach a copy of your federal return with your nonresident California return.  

 

Please see this link for more details as well as instructions on how to assemble your tax return for filing.
