I just E filed my federal taxes. Also checked the box for Ohio e file. It stated 25.00. When I continued e filing, I received a Transmission Confirmation that my 'FEDERAL: was filed. I have no idea if Ohio was filed or not. I don't want to duplicate payment as I included the checking info and double checked everything, so am confused about if Ohio is filed. Now I feel like I have to wait to see if I should also mail the State in? If I duplicate it, will it cause a problem with Ohio? Why doesn Turbo Tax explain this better if they are going to charge 25$ for the fee. I dont even see a receipt for the 25 % fee? Thanks
Your state e-file is held until your federal return is accepted. This is required in all states.
Once your federal is accepted, your state will be sent and you should get an acknowledgement of this within two days of your federal return getting accepted.
If you signed up for email or text reminders, you will get notified of the acceptance of both your state and federal returns. If you did not, you can log in to your TurboTax account and check the status of your e-files on the home page.
