This can be tricky. Before you do anything, save your file exactly as it is so you can get back to the original return. Also, put it in a second location to be safe (thumb drive, or different area if the computer).
You will first have to file the state tax. If the state tax requires the same changes as the federal you can make those changes (not Amend) as well as correcting the rejection issue. If the state tax is rejected for a technical reason a second time. I suggest you mail it. This is an original corrected state return (not Amended).
Now you have tor retrieve that copy of the first federal tax return. Once installed you will be able to amend your federal return. Do not submit the state return.
