Prompts for Entering Canadian RRSP Earnings in California State Return

Hello,

I am using TTax Desktop 2022. I am located in California which requires entering the Canadian RRSP (IRA) earnings /Dividends for state Tax. I have done this many years, using the Calif specific prompts for Canadian RRSP earnings, which populates line 18a/b on the "Interest and Dividends adjustment worksheet" for California return. I entered the div amount when asked in the California 2022 return. Now I need to go back and make a correction to that amount, but the prompt has vanished and the amount does not appear in the "Other Interest and Dividend Adjustments" page (but still shown on line 18a/b of worksheet).

Q1: Is this a bug in 2022 CA TTax ? .. can it be corrected?

Q2: Is there a way to trigger the prompt again to allow me to correct amount?

thanks for any help.

Appears this bug existed in the 2021 California return as well. See link below.

Essentially, user will only get once change to enter the Canadian RRSP amounts for DIV and CAP Gains, so you better enter the numbers correctly the first time the prompt asks, cuz you will not see it again or be able to change easily!

p.s. Hope someone from Intuit can please add this to the Calif state Bug list for next year...

(not solved).

Sadly this is still the case for the tax year 2024. I made a mistake and now I can't edit the number. Since you can't review your tax return before paying, I'm afraid to delete the State return because I will likely be charged again.

Hello Jo,

Wow, broke for at least 4 yrs now, seems it should be an easy fix(?)

According to this post, "Remove State Return" on Desktop version, should allow you to then reload it, but I have NOT tried it. ".. When in Forms mode click on the File menu at the top left of the desktop program screen. Click on "Remove state return."

(1) How do I completely delete my state tax return and restart? The imported information mistakenly made me a millionaire.

Let us know if it worked (or your final solution).

thanks
