Filing CA state tax return but amending federal return
Hello,
I have one question wrt to my tax filing. My wife already filed 2019 federal tax returns in 2020 Jan as Single mistakenly. She worked in TX so no need to file state tax returns. I have not yet filed my tax returns and I earned my income entirely in CA state last year. Now we plan to amend the federal return as Married filing jointly amd it has to be mailed and not efiled. My question is
1. Can I still efile as Married filing jointly for CA state tax return or do I need to file amended return by mailing it to them.
2. My wife has not lived with me in CA state last year and has not paid any taxes to CA state although we were married last year. Will that be an issue while filing CA state return as Married filing jointly.
