Yes, you can amend your state return only. Please see I need to amend my state return for instructions.

 

Please wait until your state return has been processed before filing the amended state. Please be aware that you can e-file your 2020 amended federal tax return, but most states require amendments to be printed and filed by mail.

This option is not working for me. It keeps coming to turbo tax is waiting guidance or something from the IRS. I do not need to amend my federal only my state. Why can't I do that?

Until the amendment program is once again operational you will either need to wait  or  use paper forms.  You have  3 years to amend a return so I would suggest just waiting.
