Hello,

Just started working on my CA portion of my taxes in turbotax. There is untitled occupation listed. First, how come this comes up (see screenshot) and how can i remove it since this does not apply to our situation? Thank you!!

The state returns pull much of the information from the federal return, so this originated in the federal return. It appears that you accidentally started to make entries in the employee business expenses section.

Here's how to make adjustments:

Click on Federal Taxes (Personal using Home and Business)
Click on Deductions and Credits
Click on I'll choose what I work on (if shown)
Scroll down to Employment Expenses
On Job-Related Expenses, click on the start/update button
Once in this section, you can remove/adjust this category

Hello,

I have done this a few times and this form continues to show up each time I start the program??? Why could this be?

If you do not have any business expenses, you can delete the input as follows:

Go to the federal section of the program
Go to Deductions & Credits
Under  All breaks, select Employment Expenses
Select Job Expenses for W-2 Income
On the next page, you should see a page titled Review your job-related expenses info. Please select the trash can icon to the right of the activity to delete any input in this section.

If you still are getting a message, you can also try to delete the form as follows:

Select Tax Tools in the black panel on the left
Select Tools below Tax Tools
Select Delete a Form
Scroll down until you see Form 2106. Select delete to the right of this form
Select File in the black panel on the left and resubmit your return for filing.
