Filed Federal Taxes electronically now to cannotfile NJ State Tax return

HolmdelTom — Sun, 14 Mar 2021 22:29:51 GMT

Filed my Federal 2020 Tax return electronically and it was accepted. Now cannot file New Jersey state tax return electronically without filing Federal Tax return electronically at the same time. Tubrotax is not recognizing the Federal Tax form was already filed electronically and screen flow will not allow me to select filing federal tax return electronically since it already been filed. Any suggestions?

I have the same exact problem with MD efiling. After spending time on the phone, I was told to mail it in. I would like to know if, and when a fix will be coming.
