Correct and resend only the federal return. Once we accept the California return, you cannot send it again via e-file. If you need to correct the California return as a result of the federal return correction, you must file an Amended Income Tax Return (Form 540X) on paper. If the IRS rejected the federal return due to an incorrect social security number (SSN), contact the Tax Practitioner Services Hotline at 916.845.7057 to correct the SSN for the California return.
