not allowed to e-file federal taxes am being forced to mail them and there's no option to E-file my state taxes. How do I E-file my state taxes

A state return cannot be e-filed if the federal is not e-filed and accepted.  If you file your federal by mail you will also have to mail the state return.

When you mail a tax return, you need to attach any documents showing tax withheld, such as your W-2’s or any 1099’s.  Use a mailing service that will track it, such as UPS or certified mail so you will know the IRS/state received the return.

Federal and state returns must be in separate envelopes and they are mailed to different addresses.  Read the mailing instructions that print with your tax return carefully so you mail them to the right addresses.

If the federal tax return is not e-filed then the state return cannot be e-filed.

Why can you not file your federal tax return?  Are you filing a Schedule C and get the message it cannot be e-filed?  If so, wait until sometime tomorrow for a software update to take affect and then see if you can e-file the federal return.

If you must mail in the federal return you must also mail in the state.  What is holding you back from efiling the federal return ?   Check the REVIEW tab to see what is stopping you.  If you have a Sch C on the return that is a known issue that should be fixed soon so just hang in there.
