Married Filing Federal Jointly and State Separately

Please see the below steps and subsequent question. 

1. I downloaded the TurboTax Desktop version. 

2. I filed a Married Filing Jointly (MFJ) Federal Return. 

3. I created mock Married Filing Separate (MFS) Returns for my wife and I. I live in CA and she lives in MA. 

4. I created state retruns for each mock MFS. I printed out each state return to mail. 

Question: Which federal return do I mail with the state returns,  the MFJ federal return or the mock MFS federal return? 

Thank you.
