Can't Efile California Taxes

In all the years of using Turbo Tax, I have never seen this one. It says it can't efile my CA taxes because: "The return has witholding from a source other than Forms W2, W2g, 1099R, 1099INT, 1099DIV, 1099B, 1099MISC, 592B and 593."

Can someone give me a clue what to look for that's causing this?

Thanks.

Did you report CA real estate withholding?

Your California real estate withholding has to be entered on both the state and the federal return.

To remove the error, please follow the steps in the link below to enter your withholdings from your Form 593.

Same with me. The withholding on 593 is shown on line 73 540 but turbo tax won't allow efiling. I checked and double checked federal forms for correct entry. CA Line 73 is correct. So do I have to wait 90 days for my refund due to TT issue? I mailed the CA filing, paid for postage plus certified mail tracking. Five days in, FTB hasn't received my filing but USPS says it was delivered.

I am sorry to hear that you had that experience. I have just tested this and found that by filling in all the fields that TurboTax identifies as required on Form 593, the e-filing error is removed.

All of the boxes that are pertinent and highlighted in yellow have been filled in. Latest TT update installed still no go. No errors on form 593. No alerts.

"this return is in a tax situation that does not allow you to efile. You'll need to print and file your return by mail. If you want more details select the REVIEW tab and continue through FINAL REVIEW.

Review says " This return has withholding from a source other than forms W2, W2G,1099R,1099B, 1099G,1099INT,1099DIV,1099MISC, 592B, and 593."

I had state withholding on form 593 which I entered. So it looks like TT doesn't recognize my 593. If it doesn't then why don't I get alerts or something telling me what's wrong?
