filing a second single member LLC return

[Schlof]

I have a client with a schedule C single member LLC and a rental set up as a single member LLC.  The program only allows for 1 CA single member LLC to be filed with the federal return.  So I try setting up a partnership return but you must list 2 partners and when transferring to the CA return it will not allow you to file as a single member LLC.  Any ideas on a work around on this?

I "think" you need to use Save As and save a copy of the federal, then use that copy for the second 568.

Im guessing there will be some issues getting both 568s to EF you may have to Efile one of them, then once its acknowledged, you uncheck the EF boxes on it and Efile the second one (to avoid the duplicate SSN message in the EFCenter)

I used to just paper file the 568s when there was one than one per SSN.
