Paper File Fed Efile States?

[Randall]

A client Fed return rejected.  He has custody of grandchild.  Apparently parent or boyfriend has already filed and claimed child as a dependent.  I have to paper file the Fed return.  I'm just wondering if I can efile the state return.  Unfortunately there are two state returns because he moved in mid year.

I don't believe it's possible.  Fortunately, the software should select the proper Federal forms that need to be attached to each State return.  Do you have the All States Guide?  Might want to check requirements to attach W2's, etc.

Some states I've been able to file without a federal efile, but it seems they've been dropping.

I have been able to file Wi without filing Federal.   However, Federal return has to be created and is attached to WI return as Pro Forma.

Thanks.  I'll take a look.
