No. The TurboTax State program is designed to pull (transfer) information from your federal return. For this reason, TurboTax State is not sold as a standalone tax-preparation product.
You can use TurboTax to prepare and file your federal return without your state – but not the other way around.
If you already filed your federal return outside of TurboTax and just need to do your state, you can either:
- Contact your State Department of Revenue or visit their website to use their tax-filing service or to download and print out their tax forms; or
- Re-create your federal return in the TurboTax software or TurboTax Online but don't file it. Then prepare and file your state return using TurboTax.
- You'll need to paper-file your state return, as state returns cannot be e-filed separately.
The first option is free; the second option requires payment for both federal and state returns, even though you won't be filing your federal.
