How do I exclude PFL/sick pay that was reported on a W-2 from California income?

The following should be able to assist you in entering the information for PFL/Sick Pay shown on your W-2:

 

Sick Pay on Form W-2 is usually shown in one of 2 ways:

  1. A checkmark in Box 13 for Third-Party Sick Pay or
  2. Code "J" for Box 14 showing Non-Taxable Sick Pay and the amount in Box 14 of your W-2.

The links below should be able to assist you in entering information for your PFL:

How do I exclude PFL/sick pay that was reported on a W-2 from California income?

I got PFL paid by an insurance company, which is taxable at federal, but not for CA state.  I don't have it reported in box 13/14 as non-taxable, since it is taxable at federal level.  They reported it on a W-2, not 1099-G, so the instructions in the link below also do not apply. 

 

But I found the solution -

There is a checkbox for "paid family leave" on the next page after entering the w-2. If you check this, TurboTax asks you about it later when doing the CA state return.
