If you printed your return, the program may assume you've filed by mail.

 

To re-enter your unfiled return and make changes, please use the instructions included in the TurboTax FAQ below.  You can complete your changes, then opt to e-file or print to file by mail.

Remember....

When you requested your extension you were supposed to payout estimated tax due.  Did you enter the payment you made into your tax return?  Go to Federal>Deductions and Credits>Estimates and Other Taxes Paid>Other Income Taxes

Does Turbo Tax think you efiled or mailed your return? Maybe you accidentally efiled?   You can check your efile status here

If your account says Printed or Ready to Mail or anything other than Accepted you can go in and continue and efile.  Click on Add a State to let you back into your retun. 

 

If it thinks you mailed,
