I e-filed my Federal Taxes with Turbotax. They were accepted and have I have received my Federal Tax Refund.

Now attempting to e-file my State tax returns but Turbotax does not recognize my Federal taxes as being completed and wants to file the Federal returns again along with state.

Here is a FAQ: How do I e-file my state after I already filed my federal?

E-Filed Federal Return has been accepted

State e-file status same as Federal return

So the problems suggested do not apply

I'm not sure what you mean by State efile status is the same as Federal Return. If that were true, you are saying your state is accepted.

Did you follow the instructions in the link I included? You are trying to file your state return after already filing your accepted Federal Return, correct?

Open your return.
On the Your 2024 federal return was accepted! page, open Your tax returns & documents, and then select 2024.
Select Add a state to reopen your return.
- Note: If you've already started your state return, you can select Continue your return in the state tax return box.
Select State from the menu.
On the Let's get your state taxes done right screen, select Continue and follow the instructions.
