CA Form 3532 HOH Parent

A client is claiming HOH status with parent as qualifying dependent.  The parent did not live with the taxpayer, as rules allow.  Lacerte is giving a critical diagnostic for failure to enter number of days the qualifying person lived with the taxpayer in 2019.  But the 'number of days' field on Screen 57.011 will not allow me to enter '0' for the number of days.

Any suggestions?

Thank you

Thank you George,

 

So what you are saying is to basically override the critical warning, since we know the answer is correct with zero days.  


Yes. It should not interfere with e-file. Just put it on ignore.

Are you sure CA has the same rules as the IRS?

 Did you try entering -1? That's frequently Lacerte's version of zero.

The more I know the more I don’t know.
