Hi My State Tax status says I started it and need to finish, but I completed it and submitted it. Any way, when I click on start it takes me to federal return instead.

If you filed the federal & state at the same time, the state will be in an incomplete state until the federal return is accepted ... then it will be sent to the state.

Your State tax return most likely says incomplete due to many state forms not yet being available, so you have to wait until they are ready. Also, In order to e-file your State tax return you have to have already e-filed your Federal tax return and have it accepted before it will allow you to e-file your State return. Please see the state forms availability table below to see if all your State tax forms are ready:
