I did not file a Schedule A on my federal return (already mailed it) as I claimed the standard deduction.
I've noticed on Schedule CA 540NR that I am required to report certain items from 1040 Schedule A. I have filled these in on Schedule CA 540NR; however, they end up being irrelevant since I will be claiming the standard California deduction.
Will I need to mail in a completed Schedule A?
And if so, do I need to amend my entire federal return or can I mail that form in separately?
Thanks!
Did not file Schedule A but Schedule CA 540NR requires it
