I filed my federal and didn't do my state at the same time. How do I do my state filing now?

If you have already e-filed your federal return, please take the steps below to e-file your state return.

Sign into TurboTax Online.
Go to Taxes > Tax Timeline
In the SOME THINGS YOU CAN DO section, click Add a state

Click on the State Taxes tab.
Click Continue to start or complete your state taxes.
Click Done with States.
Near the top-right of your screen, click the File tab.
Keep going until you get to the screen We've determined the easiest way to file your taxes (you may need to click Prepare to Send to get there).

Click on Id like to change filing methods to switch from e-file to file by mail or visa versa.

Please note that you will not be able to e-file your state return if your federal return was mailed or has not been e-filed.

Thank you. I used a mobile and needed to select the lines on top left to see the tabs.

After you sign in, goto State Taxes section and add a state to complete the state interview and proceed to filing.

It wants to amend my federal which is already filed and accepted.
