Charitable Contribution Error on California CA(540) and 540

@MissDeeGee88  Only problem with going over the State form again is that there's nothing to change.  We haven't put in anything wrong on any forms. Definitely a glitch.

Can you please elaborate what you did?

My Federal is already approved and still trying to get CA return accepted.

 

If you modi the Federal Return after approval, do we need to file Amendmend?

Charitable Contribution Error on California CA(540) and 540

Yeah, that's right there's nothing to change, but I'm guessing if the glitch is not resolved by tonight, then tomorrow. I'm going to try to re-file tomorrow.

Charitable Contribution Error on California CA(540) and 540

I was basically told to log out from my online account for tonight, log back in tomorrow, click state, go over state return again, change anything if prompted (my return was fine, no errors, so I don't think I'll have to change anything), and then move ahead to re-file my state return. I don't know if this is going to work, but I am definitely going to try it out tomorrow God willing, if that fails then I will go ahead and mail it in.

@imsrk  This is a question I'm still trying to figure out.  If our Federal has already been accepted, then we modify it and the Fed refund total goes down, what happens? I'm guessing nothing because the Fed has gone through. This is why I would wait until getting your Fed refund before making a change on it and refiling the State tax.

Tomorrow, God willing I am only going to attempt to re-file my state return, while making no changes to my federal, I will let you guys know how that goes. My federal got accepted and my state got rejected as well.

Wonder how many people who had this problem refiled and had their State go through without making changes to Fed or State?

Does anyone have an idea if there’s an official response from TT? This is absolute nightmare. Worst thing, customer service is clueless for a major problem such as this.

Charitable Contribution Error on California CA(540) and 540

You have to fix it on the federal form, that will fix the state and then you can refile. I just did it today and it was approved in minutes!!

Thanks Rebar08. I think that will be the next thing I will do. I deleted my CA stax tax,  created a new one and filed earlier. Still pending.

@Rebar08  How did you fix it?

They do see this . They referred for me to watch it until someone figure it out The Fixx on the thread

Been dealing with this for a week too. TT doesn't say what to fix and their tech had no clue what to do.

Was your federal approved already?

were you able to change anything without amending federal?

Charitable Contribution Error on California CA(540) and 540

my federal was accepted.  it's something to do with their software incorrectly populating the info from the fed to the state form.  Fed should be fine, but theirs no way to fix the state form without a software fix on the TT side.  that or just do state the old school way yourself.
