Tell us where 'here' is in CA, and possibly someone can recommend an FFL to handle the transfer.

Glad to hear it. Gun transfer laws can be confusing at times, especially when you aren't from CA.

You can, but it will have to be done via an FFL. You can't bring it into CA and give it to her, nor can she come and visit you in UT and take it home with her. It will have to be shipped to an FFL in CA where your daughter can take possession of it.

There is no legal requirement that is has to be "shipped" to an FFL. An FFL can legally accept the gun from the out of state resident in person if the out of state resident is here and has the gun with them. It will then still be handled as a normal transfer, not a PPT. FFL will still determine how much they want to charge for the service.

I had assumed that the OP was out of state, not already in CA. Regardless, we are both in agreement that the transfer has to be handled via an FFL which is what the OP appears to have done.

This was posted earlier. And this is how the FFL transfer from mom to daughter. I am from out of state. And could bring the gun to CA. I did follow all traveling laws and the gun was locked correctly. And was stored correctly. Thank again!!!
I did leave back to Utah before I got snow in or blown away. Back in Utah were our gun laws are so different. Merry Christmas.

Since you are a UT resident and the mom is a CA resident, Federal laws requires a CA FFL dealer be used to handle that transfer.

If you just gave the firearm to the mom, then both, you & the mom, have committed Federal felonies. [18 USC 922 (a)(3) & (5)]

In addition...
Since the firearm was intended for the daughter & not the mom, both the mom & dauther has violated CA laws for accepting & transferring the firearm in this manner. [PC 27515 & 27520]

Therefore, unless a CA FFL dealer was used...
All three parties involved (you, the mom, and the daughter) have violated Federal and CA laws.

Have you actually read any of this thread?

Mom (aka Stang7, the OP) brought the handgun from Utah and conducted an interstate transfer to her daughter through an FFL. Show's over; g'nite, folks.

[Stang7]

The mom which is me is from Utah and A FFL dealer did handle a transfer. And a transfer is waiting for all permits and backgrounds to be done. No felonies were committed here.
