How can I fill CA 593 through paper filing?

Context:

1. We sold a rental property in 2022.

2. We didn't receive CA 593 from anyone.

2. TurboTax doesn't support e-file after 10/31/2023.

 

Reading TT's paper filing instruction, I need to attach CA 593 for real estate withholding. Should I download the form and fill it myself? I did so, but then found there were lines for Buyer's signature.

 

I also tried to use TT to generate one. But it just asked me if I received 592-B or 593. If I select "No", it will just exit the process. If I select "Yes", a 593 pops up with a mark "for electronic filing only".

 

Any hints? Should I just manually fill the downloaded 593 and leave buyer's signature blank? Thanks!

    It turns out the escrow should have sent us CA 593 earlier. After a call, we received the form by email, and attached it to the tax return.
