"Ready to mail" means ready for YOU to print it, sign it and put it in an envelope that you take to a mailbox yourself.  TurboTax does not mail your tax return for you.   If you could not e-file for some reason, then you have to mail it in---but you do that for yourself.

 

If, in fact, you did mail it----TurboTax's software has no way to know that you mailed it.   Your account will always just show it as "ready to mail."   You have to track your refund yourself on the state's refund site.

Ready to Mail means that you have to print, sign, date and mail the state tax return to your state.

See this TurboTax support FAQ for how to print a tax return for mailing when using the online editions - https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/printers-printing/print-mail-return-turbotax-online/L5bwuqXGy_US_en_US

 

Or see if you can change the filing option to e-file from printing the state tax return.

See this TurboTax support FAQ for e-filing the state tax return after the federal return has been e-filed - https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/state-taxes/e-file-state-already-filed-federal/L1utGncEc_US_en_US

 

If you cannot e-file the state return, then Print the return from PDF using Print Center.  The Filing Instructions page will have the information on what to file and the address for filing the state return using this procedure -
