How can I remove form 593? When I uncheck it & click on Continue it doesn't remove.

Please try to directly delete the form in TurboTax. 

To do so, follow the instructions as follows:

1. Open your tax return.
2. Click on Tools.
3. Click on Delete a Form. 
4. Scroll down to your state forms and look for Form 593 and click Delete.

Finally after 4 hours of trying to file state tax with 592b — and not 593, this solution worked! Mahalo!

There is no "delete a form" option in the tools menu.  How do I delete for 593 when the program doesn't allow me to unclick it.  I have no form 593, but am unable to efile without filling one in.

Withholding is required when California real estate is sold or transferred. 

To claim the withholding credit you must file a California tax return. Report the sale or transfer as required. Enter the amount from Form 593, line 37, Amount Withheld from this Seller/Transferor, on your California tax return as withholding from Form(s) 592-B, Resident and Nonresident Withholding Tax Statement, or 593.

If that does not apply to you, follow the instruction to make sure the form was not included accidentally in your return:

1. Revisit your state return.
2. Continue until you get to the screen Take a look at California credits and taxes
3. Scroll down to Payments and Withholding.
4. Select Start/ Revisit next to Real estate and other withholding.
5. Answer No to the question Any Real Estate or Other Withholding Forms?
