Review the information on the My Info tab. You may want to try deleting the state return and re-entering, as it will pull in the information from the Federal return again. The other option may be to delete the personal information worksheet from the state return and then review the state information again.

  1. Under Tax Tools, choose Tools
  2. Choose Delete a Form
  3. Scroll through your return until you find state personal information worksheet, click Delete to the right of the form
  4. Confirm that you wish to delete the form

if product already registered; then submit federal tax first and change state tax to not ready to file; then go back and submit state and it should go through

File -> Remove State Data did the trick. I also had to change the filing method from e-file to print first. After removing the state data, the e-file went through.
