982 will be applicable to CA as well as IRS. https://proconnect.intuit.com/community/help-articles/help/generating-form-982-reduction-of-tax-attributes-due-to-discharge/00/5178

Note that the discharge does NOT flow to 1040, so you need to enter another "other income" item such as "Insolvency Form 982" and a negative number to indicate the amount.

Since CA starts with the fed AGI and the federal copy is sent with CA, Ive never done anything extra on a CA return for canceled debt with insolvency....but Im using proseries, so maybe PTO is different
