Turbotax Premier desktop. Live in WA where there is no income tax and wanting to file CA nonresident return. Turbotax is refusing to let me get rid of the WA permanently. I remove it and it comes back. CA should be the only state return and should be my "free" state. I can't even get to the CA return without it asking for a $45 fee. I will print and mail rather than pay $45 efile fee but can't even get pass that. Help please.
