File state return before amending federal?

Somehow, during the IRS process for providing my bank account information for the Federal Covid stimulus check, through IRS.gov, I mistakenly e-filed a 2019 IRS 1040 return as a "non-filer". I am not a "non-filer" and that return is incorrect and I need to amend it. But I still haven't filed my state return. I had planned to use Turbo Tax to e-file both fed and state (now have to mail amended fed). My question is, how do I now use Turbo Tax to e-file my correct state tax return? It will not match the currently filed federal return (to be amended).  Or do I file a incorrect state return to match the incorrect federal return (to be amended), and then amend the state return later to match the later amended federal return?  Thank you!
