TurboTax has a new FAQ started for this "state efile issue even though Federal is accepted," but there is little info in it since it's still being investigated.  There IS a link there, however, to sign up for notifications.

FAQ: Why am I not able to e-file my state return after filing my Federal return?

Same problem with Louisiana and Oklahoma efile attempts.  The FAQ referenced below says the issue has been "Resolved" but it does not appear to be true.

There are a couple of different issues involving efiling a state return.

I'm not sure what FAQ you are referring to.  You would need to provide a link for me to see.

The FAQ that I recently posted in this thread is for a new and different issue that began about 48 hours ago--i.e, inability for some users to efile the state return by itself even though the Federal return had already been accepted.   So a new FAQ was published yesterday for that issue (see link below).   I don't see any wording there to suggest that it has been resolved.  Where were you seeing that?

There is an issue when filing the state, which can be seen here.

I was just on the phone with TT support.

This issue (see subject line) has not yet been resolved.  

They are aware that there a lot of us out there who can't e-file their state return due to this problem. 

I'm in NY but there are other users from other states who have all said the same.

Someone else mentioned this above but to reiterate, they are offering a sign up to be notified when the patch/update is made available.
