JRS Posted January 25, 2010 Report Posted January 25, 2010 Is it the way my computer downloaded CA 540 or is the version from ATX screwed up? Page one has the typical name and numbers, but the bottom of the page has the signature. Page 2 and 3 have the rest of the info ending up with refund/amount due. It certainly doesn't look like this on the FTB website. Quote
chuck Posted January 25, 2010 Report Posted January 25, 2010 Is it the electronic version of the California return. Seems like last year the california return from ATX was the efileable one and since I was not approved to e-file in CA. I had to download a from from California. Quote
jainen Posted January 25, 2010 Report Posted January 25, 2010 >>It certainly doesn't look like this on the FTB website.<< Does ATX have a final version approved for filing yet? What you describe was the draft version. Interesting point, though -- the California 540 is now longer than the federal 1040, and that doesn't even include two more pages of Form CA which adjusts for state/federal differences! Quote

I agree they look funny but as long as California accepts and acknowledges them I'm happy. I am a creature of habit and with the state form being basically unchanged for many years it does take a little while to get use to it, but as long as it works I'm happy. Deb! Quote
joanmcq Posted January 27, 2010 Report Posted January 27, 2010 They are the new 540 form. 3 pages. Didn't anyone go to Spidell? Quote
BulldogTom Posted January 27, 2010 Report Posted January 27, 2010 They are the new 540 form. 3 pages. Didn't anyone go to Spidell? I did. San Ramon. I was not suprised to see it. But it is funky looking. Looks like it is approved for paper filing now as well. Tom Lodi, CA Quote
jainen Posted January 27, 2010 Report Posted January 27, 2010 >>Didn't anyone go to Spidell?<< I went last week at the San Jose Doubletree. Tired of chicken, I figured to give the vegetarian entre a try. The chicken came on a small patty of polenta with something similar to wet broccoli and the tiniest whole carrot in the world. The veggie plate was exactly the same, without the chicken! Quote

I could not even eat the desert it was so disgusting. On the other hand, the seminar was very good as always. Tom Lodi, CA Quote
Lion EA Posted January 28, 2010 Report Posted January 28, 2010 Hey, for those on MY side of the country, the NY/CT ATP has the absolute best dinners: prime rib at the carving table, cheese & crackers before, Caesar salad, veggies, a couple choices of starch, etc. And, Hawaiian night for the July meeting!
