I honestly do not know why you are getting that type of error message if you are in a completely different account (meaning, that you set up a totally separate account for your father). One should have no bearing on the other. Make sure they are not somehow attached and that you did, in fact, set up a separate account with different username and PW for him.&nbsp;</P> Tue, 02 Feb 2021 20:07:14 GMT https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/state-taxes/discussion/re-problems-e-filing-due-to-two-states-downloaded/01/1862814#M80044 WendyN2 2021-02-02T20:07:14Z
