Persona Tax
Level 2

In ProConnect, how do we file both a CA 540 and a CA 540NR? 

the FTB allows spouses who file MFJ federally to file separate 540s per their residency.

"If you file a joint tax return for federal, you may file separately for California if either spouse was a nonresident for the entire year and had no income from California sources during 2022."

Tax Payer was a full resident during the tax year, however spouse lived in home country for the year (EZ). No income was derived from CA sources (contract income from a NY source).  

All of this is inputed on the ProConnect state Nonresident screen. However, the software is not generating both of the 540s. 

thank you in advance,
