 \n# California 540 form instructions\n\nFor tax year 2024,California residents need to follow specific rules when filling out Schedule CA(540).New laws include excluding wildfire relief payments from income and temporarily suspending net operating loss carryovers.Individuals with less than $1 million in net business income or modified adjusted gross income are exempt from the NOLsuspension.The Federal Disaster Tax Relief Act of 2023 allows for an exclusion of qualified wildfire relief payments from federal income,but California law does not conform to this provision.If a taxpayer excluded a certain amount from federal income and there's no similar exclusion in California,they must include that amount in their Californiataxable income.Also,effective January 1,2024,the net operating loss(NOL)carryover deduction is suspended for three years,with varying extensions based on when the losses were incurred.For more information on these changes and how to compute NOL,refer to form FTB 3805V or California Revenue and Taxation Code Section 17276.24.Additionally,tax law updates allow qualified IRC Section 529 tuition plans that have been maintained for 15 years to rollover to a Roth Individual Retirement Arrangement(IRA)without penalty.However,this federal provision does not apply in California;rollover distributions from an IRC Section 529 plan are includible in taxable income and subjectto an additional tax of 212%.Lastly,catch-up contributions forcertain individuals aged 50 or older who contribute to IRAs have been indexed starting from January 1,2024.The California
