That is correct. You cannot e-filed a state return from TurboTax unless you have e-filed a federal return. TT cannot be used to prepare "stand-alone" state returns. Why didn't you use the same program for your state returns that you already used for your federal?
And despite whatever H & R Block said---it is possible to mail a NY return.https://www.tax.ny.gov/pit/file/return_assembly_mail.htm
