Form 3554 not applicable. Need to proceed to e-file. Why the requirement if not applicable?

You may have entered information somewhere in the California portion of the TurboTax interview indicating that this might apply to you. To delete Form 3554 in TurboTax Online:

  1. Open your return in TurboTax
  2. Select Continue or Pick up where you left off
  3. In the left pane, select the Tax Tools dropdown
  4. Select Tools
  5. In the pop-up window Tool Center, select Delete a form
  6. Scroll down until you see your state return
  7. Select Delete next to Form 3554 and follow the onscreen instructions

If that doesn’t remedy the issue, you may need to delete your state return.  See the TurboTax Help article How do I delete my state return in TurboTax Online? for more information.

To whom it may concern: The fix above actually worked. This was caused by an entry brought over from regarding credits it was not clear as coded and an entry of  ‘0’ denoting (N/A)triggered a requirement in the CA return. I believe form 3554 might be an employer requirement! Deleting form achievable on laptop or desktop.
