@mordinir11-gmail We cannot answer whether it will be "easy" for you. We have no idea how complex your return is, nor do we know your level of comfort or expertise in preparing a tax return. If you use the TurboTax software, the information flows from the the federal return to the state return, and makes state preparation relatively easy. We do not know what all you will have to enter on a state return if you just prepare it on the paper forms by hand. You asked if there is a way to avoid paying to use TT to prepare the state return. There is a way----but it might not be worth the $49 you save. That is up to you.
