"State will ALWAYS reject if Federal rejects. State cannot be e-filed until the Fed accepts."
Interesting twist...On Feb 26, I filed Fed and State (CA) simultaneously. Fed was immediately rejected due to TT's false "Inherited IRA" problem. A couple days later (on March 2), CA rejected my return but stated a different reason (a bad entry on CA Form 593), with no mention of the rejected Fed return. So CA at least reviewed my State return, even though they must have known the Fed return had been rejected. Anyway, I fixed my Form 593 error and, with no other changes, refiled both on March 5, and both were accepted within the hour.
