CALIFORNIA HOUSING FINANCE ADU GRANT

HOPE2
Level 9

Hi to all.

Client received a $40000 taxable grant 1099-G from California Housing Finance Agency for ADU.

My question: Is it taxable for California? If not where a right place is on Other income Schedule CA' part to enter as subtraction.

Thank you for your assistance.

Did you find out about this? It doesn't seem to make sense that the 40k is taxable in California state tax.

"It doesn't seem to make sense that the 40k is taxable in California state tax."

Unless you find where it is explicitly exempt, it is taxable.

I don't understand why that makes no sense and unless your congressman or senator or representative is here, no one here has any control over this, anyway, and this isn't the place to debate it. The grant is already for low- to moderate-income folks who don't have much of a tax bracket anyway.
