Depending on your state, and the types of information and forms you have on your state return, you could be required to submit your return by mail.

 

If TurboTax says the return is "ready to mail", it means that either

 

  • you have not E-filed the state tax return yet.
  • You may not have been able to E-file the return, or
  • You may have chosen to print and mail the return

 

You can go back through the File section and see if you are required to mail the return or if you accidentally chose to mail instead of e-filing.

 

If you have to mail the return, TurboTax will provide instructions if you choose this option.

 

You can check the TurboTax Forms Availability Tool to see whether any of your state return forms are not supported for e-filing.
