I am mailing my 2021 California returns as usual again this year.  I noticed that this year's Form 540 printout doesn't have a series of barcodes on the first page like years' past.  Is this normal for 2021 Form 540 or am I missing something like a font driver?

    I have the same issue. Have always had the bar code on the last page but there is none now. I would think Intuit would have answered you by now though. As I understand it the bar code is to expedite processing by the state. As for the driver, I am using the same comp and printer and have not changed drivers for years and it just does not work for me this year. I will just mail it in without I doubt there will be any problem other than maybe slower processing time. Hopefully someone from intuit will get to this post soon. Look on the bright side though......> Saves a lot of INK! 🙂
