Why is my CA tax return asking for 3804-CR?

[thedonster]

I am using the 2022 desk top version of Turbo Tax and I am getting this same issue.

I have the same issue.

Thanks for your instructions.

I was able to send data so they can debug their program,

[thedonster]

Me too and your information is/was a viable work around.

Thanks for sharing this information.

I'm using the desktop version and have run into this issue, also. What do I do to fix it?

Thanks

THIS IS NOT THE BEST ANSWER. 

Why is there an abundance of your customers that DO NOT NEED the 3804-CR form being stopped from e-filing their CALIFORNIA STATE returns because a form WE DO NOT NEED that is not available to e-file???

THIS IS THE BEST ANSWER!

I was able to go into forms and delete the 3804-CR.  Then go past to file my taxes.

Deleting the form worked perfectly for me!  I love it when a customer comes up with the quick fix for a problem rather than the "experts".  Maybe it's a legal matter on their end that prevents them from giving the fix.  Either way I'm glad I was able to file my CA return without waiting until the 26th.  THANKS!!!

My state tax is not complete because of form 3804-cr, which is not applicable for me, how can I fix/change?

Thank You,

TAXABLE YEAR. CALIFORNIA FORM. Pass-Through Entity Elective Tax Credit. 2021. 3804-CR. If this does not apply you will have to delete the state tax form. 

To delete in desktop click here.

To delete in TurboTax Online open your return and click pick up where I left off and continue. the return should now open and have a left hand menu with Tax Tools>Tools>Delete a form>Delete a state form CR-3804, confirm. And review your state return again for errors.

You are the man! thank you

I too ran into this roadblock.  I figured out how to delete the form (which was completely blank, except for my name and identifying info) and that solved the problem.   I've also helped a coworker who was stuck on the same thing, using the TurboTax online platform.  It was a bit more difficult to find the form there, but we did and he was grateful for the help.

TurboTax should fix this problem.  If you are not required to use this form, it makes no sense to have it hold up the filing of the state tax return.

Hi, unfortunately I can't find the "forms" icon you all point out. Where in the process of filing would I find this icon?  Thanks much.

It depends on whether you are using Turbo Tax online, or the purchased product.  If you are using the purchased product, you can switch to the forms mode in the upper right on your screen.  I think someone else in this community said how to find the delete forms in the online version.  Good luck!
