no income except SSA-1099, eligible for homestead credit.

not eligible for electronic filing due to 0 entered in

lines 9,11,16,18,21,24,33 on the Federal form.

is that a red flag?

If your only income was Social Security you can use a trick the IRS allows in order to e-file. Enter $1 of interest income, then it should let you e-file.

No. There are several reasons you cannot e-file your return. Returns can't be e-filed if:

Returns can't be e-filed if they:

Contain override
Have no taxable income
Contain a W-2 where box 1 is blank or the box 16 amount is greater than the box 1 amount
Contain IRS forms or schedules not on the accepted Forms or Schedule List
Contain non-final forms
Are for prior-year or amended return.

You should be able to print, sign and mail your state return.

Your state might not require filing a state return to claim your Homestead Credit.
