The total California withholding attributable to the K1 activity must be entered on the federal K1-4 Screen and must also be reported on the CAK1-4 Screen. If none of the withholding is attributable to Form 592-B or Form 593, no further data entry is necessary as long as the K1 activity has an EIN.

After you enter that amount on CA592B Screen or CA593 Screen, that amount transfers from Form 540, line 71 to line 73 or from Form 540NR, line 81 to line 83. The difference between the full amount entered on the K1-4 Screen and the amounts accounted for via the CA592B or CA593 Screens is included in the electronic record (along with the EIN of the pass-through entity) as K1 withholding.
It is no longer necessary to use the CAK1-4 Screen to transfer Form 592-B or Form 593 withholding from one line to another.
