When filing my Arizona return, my Federal schedule A is not included in the filing copy. I'm only itemizing on state. Does it get automatically included with the efile?

Arizona's instructions require that Schedule A from the federal return be attached to any Arizona return that takes itemized deductions. However, as you know, if you do not itemize on the federal return, there is no Schedule A on the federal return to attach.

Companies like TurboTax do not file forms as such; instead they file data packets that have been defined in advance by the IRS and the states. I am not sure, but I believe that TurboTax must create whatever data the state requests to be added in the case where there is no Schedule A on the federal return.
