It has always been my experience (and assumption) that Lacerte does a good job at attachments for Schedule S. As a safety blanket, you can do the attachment yourself, just to be sure. 

The answer may lie here. Maybe @IntuitBettyJo or @IntuitAustin could make ALL these links work https://proconnect.intuit.com/community/help-articles/help/other-state-tax-credit-faqs/00/5959 AND check on a true and correct answer to this common question

Per my discussion with lacerte today, lacerte does not automatically attach to the CA e-filed return the nonresident state return for the CA Schedule S.

Just curious.  Did you get any diagnostic at all for attaching the GA return?

For states that require a copy to be manually attached, you should get a prompt in the critical diagnostic (based on my experience with PTO, which uses the same tax logic as Lacerte).  As an example, since CO requires the other state's return to be manually attached, you will be prompted by a CD to do so.
