Successfully mailed my Federal but Virginia requires e-file.  Turbo Tax won't let me e-file Virginia this year.  Says I have to e-file Federal first.  Not possible.  Also just completed taxes for two of my LLC's using Turbo Tax - mailed both Federals, and just e-filed both Virginias.  Why am I stuck on Turbo Tax home with no option?  Help please.  Outta time.

Sorry, You can not efile state if you are mailing federal or before efiling federal.  If you want to file state first you have to print and mail state.  See,

Thanks but not possible.  Virginia only accepts e-file.  For the past 10 years I mailed federal and e-filed Virginia.  I just mailed federal and e-filed Virginia for two LLC's.  Turbo Tax cannot make me mail State when State prohibits mailing.
