Any way besides mailing to file state tax return

Ohio lets you e-file, but charges $25 for the service.  I would imagine (hope) that other states offer similar benefits.  There probably is an office online for each state to check e-filing capabilities.  Ohio's online office is:  tax.ohio.gov

@taxmeup0819 - 

What state are you trying to e-file for?  Is this a individual return (1040)?  TT can e-file to Massachusetts, but I know at least some Florida forms can't be e-filed. 

 

I've also run into a problem in the past where I wasn't allowed to e-file because I'd been late paying some estimated taxes for that year. That was for the IRS; maybe some states have similar rules.

California also has online filing (e-file). I guess same as Ohio.

You can mail a state tax return, e-file or drop the return off at the state tax office @taxmeup0819. Some states will also let you file directly on their state tax website.
