Did you efile the Federal return, and has it been accepted? You won't be able to efile a state return until the Federal is accepted. If you mailed the Federal return, you cannot efile the state return.
Here's how to open your return back up:
- You can log in and go to your 2015 Tax Timeline. Scroll down to "Some things you can do" and click "Add a State."
- That won't really add an additional state, it will just open your return back up.
- Then once the return is open you can go to the State Taxes tab to complete your state return.
NOTE: Do NOT use this method to open a return to make changes to an
already-filed return.
If you later need to make changes, you have to
go through the formal amending process, and your return must start off
exactly as originally filed.
