I changed my mind about filing my state return after filing my Federal return and now can't e-file my state return. How can I e-file my state return??

Same here.  Trying to file South Carolina state return AFTER federal return has been accepted and it won't let me.

Although you can e-file your federal and state taxes together, if you choose to e-file your federal first, you'll have to wait until that return has been accepted before you can e-file your state.

If your federal hasn't been accepted, or you printed and mailed it, you won't be able to e-file your state but you can print and mail a paper return.

Married filers: If you e-filed your federal using the joint married status, but you want to e-file your state returns separately, only one of you will be able to e-file. The other must paper-file their state return.
