Clients in California work with Filing Karma the same way clients anywhere else do: entirely online. A CPA reviews your return, with the filing scope based on the federal and state rules that apply to your facts.
Start Your California FilingWhat that looks like in practice
You share income documents, prior-year returns, and any relevant records through a secure portal. Your return is prepared and reviewed by a CPA, you review a summary together by phone or video, and the return is filed electronically once you approve it. No office visit, anywhere in California or otherwise.
Filing requirements in California
A California filing requirement depends on income, residency, sourcing, filing thresholds, and other facts. If you moved during the year, work remotely for an out-of-state employer, or have business income connected to more than one state, those facts are reviewed as part of your engagement.
