I have an RDP that will be filing jointly in CA but one person has to file single and the other will file HOH for federal. Does ProSeries have a simpler way of creating this return? 

So far I have created individual Federal returns for the clients and divided the Community Property as well as their non-community property. I have filled out form 8958 exactly the same for both partners. 

My issue is in CA state filing. How do I combine their incomes? ProSeries will not let me add/edit the AGI listed in state because it pulls directly from the federal return (only half the partnerships AGI). 

Should I create a 3rd return including all income from both sides where the RDP is MFJ but only file the state return?

 

I feel I may have gone about creating this RDP return the wrong way. Is there a more efficient way to generate these returns?
