Get your taxes done using TurboTax

DoninGA is so repetitively wrong that I'm starting to think it's a Russian chatbot.  I have the same problem.  I was able to file by 2020 federal return.  Then I was told, via 2 calls with turbotax CPAs to print it out and send it NYS based on TurboTax instructions.  The problem is ... the second page that prints out, which appears to be from NYS Department of Taxation & Finance, says the following (I'll try and use the same BOLD that the form uses: 

New York State requires this income tax return to be filed electronically.

New York State law requires income tax returns prepared using software to be e-filed.  Because this New York State tax return was prepared using software, you MUST file it electronically.

Besides being the law, e-filing has many advantages: 

• Taxpayers using e-file get their New York State refunds twice as fast as paper filers.
• E-filing is fast, easy, and secure.
• There are no additional costs for e-filing.  Once you've paid your New York State tax preparation software, you're entitled to FREE e-filing of your New York State return.

Most New Yorkers enjoy the benefits of e-filing.
