How to complete California Form 568 for 3 separate LLC with business activity and rental activity?

I have 1 LLC-single member with business activity and 2 LLC-single member with rental activity each with different entity names, EIN and SOS numbers.

On the Federal 1040 I did Schedule C and marked the LLC box and I also marked marked the LLC box on the Schedule E for each of the LLC properties.

But on California 568 I only get one 568 with the EIN and SOS number for the business and one $800 LLC fee with the whole total for all the entities.

Is this the right way to do it? How will the state know I am filing for 3 LLCs? And what about the $800 LLC fee for the other two? What am I doing wrong?

Once the federal return is complete, Save it. Now use Save As and make a copy of it, use that copy for the 2nd LLC, do it again for the 3rd LLC.

On the first main file, check the EF boxes for all 3, Federal and CA and CALLC.

On the second file, only check the EF box for the CALLC, do the same for the 3rd file.

Youll need to check the LLC box on the Fed Sch C or E for the 2nd and 3rd files..

Now in the EFCenter you've got a Federal, a CA and 3 different CALLCs.

Just dont split them off until youre sure the Federal schedules are complete, if you need to make changes, you'll have to make the same changes to all 3 files
