I had to file an amended return for my 2022 Federal and California return. I was able to successfully efile both in TurboTax and both were accepted. TurboTax gave me instructions on how to send in my revised federal return, but there was nothing on the state return. Do you know where I can find the information on how to send the amended state return and check to the state?

 

In the pdf that was saved from TurboTax there are only federal instructions. Unfortunately I need to send a check to both federal and state.

    The 540 Schedule X instructions give you some options for paying what you owe with an amended return.  

     

    "Line 7 – Amount You Owe
    Pay online with Web Pay. Go to ftb.ca.gov/pay for more information.
    You may also pay by credit card. Call 800.272.9829 or go to the ACI
    Payments, Inc. (formerly Offical Payments) website at
    officialpayments.com
    and use the jurisdiction code 1555. ACI Payments, Inc. charges a convenience
    fee for this service.

     

    Or, if you are not required to remit all your payments electronically, make
    a check or money order payable to the “Franchise Tax Board” for the full
    amount you owe. Write your SSN or ITIN and the taxable year you are
    amending. "

    If you are planning to mail a check, download payment voucher 3582 and follow the instructions on it.
