I tried to efile my federal return three times but three times were rejected for the same reason (there is a potential issue with the calculation of your taxable inherited IRA). Turbotax said that it was IRS issue. I followed Turbotax recommendation to mail in my federal return. Now I wanted to efile my PA state return but I cannot because I did not efile my federal. I spoke to my PA state return folks. They said I can efile my PA return after I mailed in my federal return. It is not PA that does not allow efiling. Is there a bug in the turbotax program? What can I do beside mail in my state return?

Since you have you mailed in your federal return, you will need to wait until it is accepted before you're able to e-file your state return. Please see the following help article for more assistance: How do I e-file my state after I already filed my federal?

Hi AshleyLO,

How do I notified Turbotax that my mailed in federal return is accepted so that I can efile my state tax return? Thanks. Appreciate your help.

Please be aware if you mailed your federal return then you will not be able to e-file your state return. You will have to print and mail your state return as well.
