Question on Credit for Employer Social Security and Medicare Taxes Paid on Certain Employee Tips

[ritagol...@gmail.com]

Question on Credit for Employer Social Security and Medicare Taxes Paid on Certain Employee Tips Form 8846.

I have a small restaurant biz in FL. As a result I get credits via form 8846.
I understand that I can use this credit for Federal taxes.

I am a resident of CA.
Can I use it to get credit for CA taxes too when I do my state taxes?

If so, how do I go about getting this credit?
Which line do I insert this figure on the CA form 540?

Thank you in advance for your help.
