You can prepare more than five states, but will have to mail them.  IRS regulations only allow five states to be Efiled.

@MarilynG (I have the same issue) I don't see an option to just "prepare" one of the states, when I go to start the 6th state it tells me to delete a previous one. How can I kept one to mail and e-file the other 5?

 

Thanks!

Print the state return, then start a new state.
