I can input the spouse residency in the "California Part-Year/Nonresident Information" tab, just wondering if there's any other input that needs to be made. Thank you.

IRS Pub 3 will tell you whether spouse can opt to use Military spouse's State.

Thank you very much for your reply. I was trying to ask how to make the election on proconnect, not if the spouse are eligible.  😀

My situation was a little different but I am sharing it in case there are other states that behave in the same way.  I need the Military Spouse Relief to work in the Arizona return.  I selected State & Local  drop down "Part Yr/ NonRes Information.  Select Residency status:  NonResident.  Continue scrolling down Part Year Resident; continue scrolling Arizona Source IRA Deduction and I found: Qualified spouse of active duty military member and click that one.  

I hope this helps.
