Alimony in Fed & CA returns

[warrio9r]

I input the Aimony i received in 2021 into my Fed return correctly, but i dont SEE if it transferred into CA return?  Which is WHERE it IS taxed!!!!!!!   But i do NOT want to be DOUBLE TAXED by adding it in as a misc additional income item.  Do i ASSUME it transferred with everything else?  Even tho in Fed it doesnt show cuz it its NOT taxed????

Confused,

If you entered alimony received in the federal section it will be reported on Sch 1 line 2a  which makes it's way to the form 1040 line 8 were it is taxed on the federal return.      Then on the CA form 540 it will be included in the federal AGI on line 13 so it gets taxed on the CA return.
