My client got divorced in a community property state during the year.  She has a filing status of single.

Pub 504 says "Each spouse is taxed on half the community income for the part of the year before the community ends".  Lacerte will produce form 8958, but since it's not MFS, it doesn't include the former spouse's name and SSN. 

When I enter in the former spouse's name and SSN under the fields for registered domestic partner on screen 3.1, it produces a critical diagnostic saying that to use the registered domestic partner fields, it has to be a return from California, Nevada, or Washington (which it's not).

How do I get the form 8958 to properly populate her former spouse's information?

Also, how should the items of income be entered?  If I enter her former spouse's W-2 information, but only include the income and withholding allocated to her, will that cause problems in processing the returns?
