Mock MFS return help!

I just completed my MFJ return.  I need to complete a Mock MFS return in order to complete my VA state return.  It seems like I have to start all over.  Is that the only way?  I have the Turbo Tax downloaded version.

thank you!

Just start a new tax return for the mock state tax return.

Click on the File menu at the top left of the desktop program screen.  Click on New Tax Return.
