When paper filing your California Form 540, you need to include all of the tax forms that print with your return.  You should remove any piece of paper that says (keep for your records) at the top.

Please see attached screen shot for Federal attachments required.  You'll also need to include a copy of any tax form you received that shows California withholding.

  • If your tax return has an amount due, mail your tax return to the following address:

FRANCHISE TAX BOARD

PO BOX 942867

SACRAMENTO CA 94267-0001

  • If your tax return shows a refund or no amount due, mail your tax return to the following address:

FRANCHISE TAX BOARD

PO BOX 942840

SACRAMENTO CA 94240-0001
