schirallicpa Posted October 13, 2023 Report Share Posted October 13, 2023 My federal return has to be paper filed. (This is lady with IRS PIN issue.) But she has a NYS return that I thought I could still efile without the IRS efile. I think I used to be able to. I'm just ready to scream today! grumble mumble........grumble mumble............ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abby Normal Posted October 13, 2023 Report Share Posted October 13, 2023 On the state efile info form, there should be a box to disconnect the state return from the federal modernized efile (MeF) system. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hahn1040 Posted October 14, 2023 Report Share Posted October 14, 2023 my experience is that you create the federal efile but not transmit it. only transmit the state (after you have unlinked it as Abby instructed) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
