Looking for CA help and verification for non resident please

[WITAXLADY]

WI resident - worked in CA first half of the year -

So on the CA NR - I would subtract the other half of the year as it is not in CA - as if a CA resident - and they were not in CA so not CA wages?

That is how other NR's are done..

Then the 2106 is allowed for CA - but can I take all of the expenses or just the ones incurred in CA? It seems to take all of them and the instructions do not seem very clear. 

And then the tax prep is also allowed - where does that go now on the CA?

Thank you,

1.  You are correct on the Wages.   The W2 should have broke that out but if it did not you will make the manual adjustment on pg 1 of the CA 540 CA form.  Hit the green arrow (aka bunny hop) to get to the adjustment input screen.

2.  Go to the form 2106 form and go to the state tab, add all expenses related to CA work and earnings.

3.  Tax Prep is entered on the Fed Schedule A.   Go to the very last tab called "State Use Only - Misc Deds" and you can enter the Tax Prep.   You will also see your 2106 totals on that worksheet.
