State tax says incomplete

[schleifkl]

why are they incomplete?

[LynnD]

E-filing a state is only allowed once a federal return is accepted/rejected. State returns will show incomplete until federal has been accepted. If you already e-filed your federal return, you'll have to wait until your e-file is accepted/rejected in order to proceed with state. 

You will have to come back (after your state forms are ready or after your federal return is accepeted) to complete your state return.

When you come back to complete your state return, the following steps will allow you to file, if you have already filed your Federal return.  Also see attached screenshots.

1. Click on Visit My Tax Timeline

2. Under Some Things You Can Do (below your 2015 return statuses), click on Amend (change) return

3. Click on Amend my return

4. Click on the File tab and go through the prompts to file your state return

When I e-filed, I was informed that additional forms would be e-mailed to me to complete my state taxes.  My federal return is showing "Accepted" and I should receive it between January 20th and February 9th.  Since my state taxes are showing incomplete but my federal return has been accepted, will there be any delay in receiving my federal return since I have not yet completed my state taxes?
