Is anyone else having an issue with your returns getting rejected due to the California middle class tax refund? I have completed the updated question recently adied.

Yes, I think it's resolved. I e-filed both my returns yesterday and both were accepted.

Im still getting rejected. Whats the solution?????

It’s been awhile so I don’t remember the details. But make sure you run through the entire process in that section. Eventually there will be a section that says some things do any of these apply, there will be a list and you will check the box next to I received the California middle class refund (or something along those lines) I had to keep going back to the beginning to get it to run me through the questions. If you have too start at the very beginning and click through. I know it’s not very specific but I hope this helps. Good luck!

This information for the California Middle Class Tax Refund has been updated. You do not need to enter this into your tax return at all.

You do not have to include the California Middle Tax Refund on your federal or state tax return.

The IRS said it determined it will not challenge the taxability of payments related to general welfare and disaster relief. This means that people in the following states do not need to report these state payments on their 2022 tax return: California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Hawaii, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Maine, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, and Rhode Island. Alaska is in this group as well, but please see below for more nuanced information.
