- Client wants section 179 expense on CA return for equipment. They have the income. I see no reason why they aren't getting it. Proconnect will not compute it.

California is limited to $25K in Section 179. But they have the income, and equipment is new. It qualifies. There is a loss on the federal side. Not sure if that is affecting it or not.

No one should ever expect CA to be exactly like Federal. It is normal for things to look different since CA does not conform to the IRC on various provisions.
Here's the reason why: https://proconnect.intuit.com/community/individual/help/california-ca-section-179-limitations/00/596...

What type of return?
If Schedule C are you saying the Schedule CA is showing a difference for business income?
Have you looked at the details for Depreciation input? Federal will take bonus depreciation, so go down to Current 179 expense and leave the federal column empty (use delete to get rid of anything there) and put the value you want on the State is different column.
Answers are easy. Questions are hard!
