Can I e-file my 2018 state return?

Can I e-file my 2018 state return?  I've prepared BOTH my federal & state returns for 2018 (in 2019) using TurboTax.  I know I can e-file my federal return, but what about my state return?  Can I e-fi;e that this year via TurboTax?

You can e-file your state return, just not without your federal return or not before your federal return. This will assist with why you are unable to e-file your state return alone: https://ttlc.intuit.com/replies/4232481

This will assist with if you are wanting to e-file your state return, that it must be done with your federal return or only after the federal return has been accepted: https://ttlc.intuit.com/replies/3301358

In my case I'm Married Filing Jointly. Apparently I can E-file my state return via TT2018 after E-filing my Federal, especially if I get confirmation my federal was accepted.
