Why are efile non-supported 1040Es forms being added to my return when I am paying by check? Additionally is the 1040V accepted when efiling?

Your transmission didn't go through
We could not e-file your return for the following reason:
Our records indicate that you are not entitled to efile one or more formsets.

Why can't  I e-file state only as I know it's the Fed that's screwing me up.

1040ES and 1040V are used when you are sending money via US Mail.

They have nothing to do with e-File.

So why won't my state taxes at least efile?
