Similar to what the feds did in 2007 with eliminating the filing requirements of the 1041-A, California has adopted a new Form 541-B and the instructions state that split interest trusts no longer need to file Form 541-A.
From the instructions to the 2008 Form 541-B:
[Q]
California Form 541-B, Charitable Remainder and Pooled Income Trusts, was revised to conform more closely with the federal Form 5227, Split-Interest Trust Information. The revised Form 541-B meets the filing requirements of R&TC Section 18635. Split-interest trusts no longer have file FTB Form 541‑A, Trust Accumulation of Charitable Amounts. A trust allowed a deduction under IRC Section 642(c), must file Form 541-A. For more information, go to our website at ftb.ca.gov and search for Form 541-A instructions.[/Q]
