Efiling Multiple States

[Crank]

I have a client that worked a few months in another state so we need to file two states. I will efile the main state (Pennsylvania) as "piggyback" to the federal and the Non-Resident state (California) as "direct". The main state offers a credit for taxes paid to the Non-Resident state.

So, my question is if I efile the federal and both of these states what do I do about:

1.) The "direct" non-resident state (CA) which uses Federal numbers in its calcualtions and

2.) The main state (PA) which allows the credit for taxes paid to the non-resident state (CA)

as far as providing Federal documents to Non-Resident (CA) in #1 and non-resident state (CA) info to the main state (PA) in #2?

Does this information have to be manually mailed or will the information somehow be passed on through the efiles?

Thanks

When I had these type situations last year, the normal e-file procedure transmitted the correct information and forms. Therefore, unless there were certain paper docs that were required I filed them all electronically with no problems.

OK, Thanks for the reply.
