State tax filing

Mail your married filing separate New York return. You will not be able to file this return in TurboTax because it does not match your federal married filing jointly return.

 

We suggest sending it by certified mail with proof of delivery so you know it’s been received by New York.

 

New York uses federal income so it will not accept a separate state return without a matching federal return. Your federal return is a “mock return” not meant to be filed with anyone.
