State tax filing

Your state return will show a status of incomplete if you e-filed your federal return by itself and it has not yet been accepted. If your federal return has been accepted you can e-file your state return.  E-filing a state return by itself is only allowed once a federal return is accepted. If you mailed your Federal return you must also mail your state return.
