hello

I'm wondering if anyone is having a similar issue with California form 540 and not being able to print out form 540. on our software they are watermarked E-file only, and cannot be printed out. We can e-file the state return, but anytime we try to print our return, we just get a page that says the form is unavailable, is anyone else having this issue?

Its a hassle every year waiting for state forms to be final and able to be printed....not sure how many bozos it took mailing in non-final forms for this to be an issue, but it sure is a PITA!

Actually, I just checked a print out from this morning and it DOES include the 540, so you may want to run an update of the program see if you get better results.

hey thanks for the response, what version are you on for 2022?

we are on 43.0119 and anytime we try to print the entire 2022 tax return, instead of the form 540 we get a page that says "this form is not available for this release" on all pages that are watermarked. getting frustrating that lacerte doesn't offer any sort of estimated date of when it will be printable, and when we contact the Francise tax board, we are told that are final forms have been released, and that this is something with lacerte software. their customer support is extremely unhelpful with this situation.
