Question

Do you send the federal tax return with the state tax return in California? Also, does California have the same mailing address as the IRS?

No.  The mailing address for a federal tax return and a  state tax return are completely different.

 

Go to this IRS website for the address to mail a federal tax return - https://www.irs.gov/filing/where-to-file-paper-tax-returns-with-or-without-a-payment

 

Go to this CA FTB website for where to mail a California state tax return - https://www.ftb.ca.gov/help/contact/mailing-addresses.html

If Turbo Tax printed out 2 copies of the federal (one is behind California) then CA wants a copy of federal 1040 included.  It should say where and what to mail on each coversheet instructions.
