Anyway, it looks like I can allocate all of the SE net income, SE Tax and SE AGI Adjustment to the husband who was the sole proprietor.  My E&O insurance and  I can't thank you enough!!  CA Publication 1031 is entitled "Guidelines for Determining Resident Status" which is why I didn't look at it earlier.  Luckily, it had the two examples of full time MFS residents of CA in it!

It's good to bounce ideas off and that's the beauty of having forums like this.

The citation I provided is under Chapter 2, which pertains only to the treatment of SE-tax, not SE income, which is subject to community property laws.  Where in CA Pub 1301 did you see the example(s) that SE income should be allocated entirely to the spouse who operates the business as a sole proprietor?
