Just filed fed 1040ez. How do I file for state?

[PrinceA · Accepted solution]

You can e-file your state return(s) after your federal return is accepted.  Your state return will show a status of incomplete if you filed your federal return by itself (or with another state). 

The IRS started accepting 2016 tax returns January 23.  TurboTax will send you an email when the federal tax return has either been accepted or rejected by the IRS.

Your state return will not transmit until all the forms and schedules included in the return are available for filing.  See this TurboTax support FAQ for state forms availability.

To access your state returns, after filing your federal return please follow these steps: 

1. On the Overview page, click on My TurboTax > My Tax Timeline.  [See Screenshot #1, below.]
2. Click on Continue my [state] return.  [Screenshot #2]
3. If you have not completed your state return, click on the State Taxes tab.  If you have completed your state return, click on the Review tab and go through the prompts to file your state return.
