Unfortunately it's useless to almost all software developers/engineers in the state because they don't include capital gains.

- ac29 8y agoThere's a pretty huge list of disqualifying things actually, though capital gains (even $1) is probably the biggest restriction. I wonder why they can't handle this - its not that obscure. https://www.ftb.ca.gov/online/calfile/qualifications2018.shtml?WT.mc_id=CalFile_Sidebar_Qualifications_2018 https://www.ftb.ca.gov/online/calfile/qualifications2018.sht...
- marcinzm 8y agoProbably because they got lobbied by tax preparation software companies to exclude it.
- dangjc 8y agoMy capital gains have no difference in treatment between CA and federal. It's just one line on the form. It's ridiculous I can't use CA electronic filing because of this.
