Beginning January 1, 2014, taxpayers who complete a like-kind exchange of California property for property located out-of-state will be required to file an information return with the FTB. (New R&TC §§18032, 24953 added by AB 92)

The information return must be filed for the year in which the exchange is completed and each subsequent year that the gain or loss is deferred. If the taxpayer fails to file an information return, and a required tax return is not filed, the FTB may estimate net income and assess tax, interest, and penalties.
