Question

Is there a way to edit my California State Return? My return was rejected for the error /CA-Return/CA-ReturnData/CAForm540/PrincipalResidence/CountyInCalifornia

I included "County" instead of just the word "Orange" and the site seems to be unable to fix it or let me edit it myself.

You can get back to this screen to reenter the county in TurboTax by following the steps below:

  1. Click on State on the left column. 
  2. Confirm that a resident return in the State of California is being filed. 
  3. Click continue.
  4. Answer the questions about your 2019 filing.
  5. On the next screen, titled Your Principal Residence, enter your county of residence.

Once the California county is reentered as outlined above, you can continue to refile your return.

Will this make your return take longer?

If the return has already been rejected, it will be resubmitted again, which does put you as though you never filed before. 

 

The time will be the normal amount of time. >We cannot guarantee the amount of time it will be for the return to process.
