Question

If I am only amending my State Return, do I still have to file a 1040X with the IRS

My State Return is the only one I wanted to amend.  My Federal is OK, but turbotax gave me a IRS 1040X in addition to my State Amendment form

No, you can amend the state without amending your federal return. The steps can be found here below. Depending on which version of the TurboTax software you used to file your state return, you just click on it below to view the steps of amending in that version. 

If you need to undo the amend of the federal return, go here for steps for that https://ttlc.intuit.com/questions/2552802

NOTE: It is recommended to wait until your original state return has been accepted and you have received your refund before amending it.

I am facing a similar issue.

The system shows all the forms and counters for Federal and other states have become 0.

Is it okay to just e-file the particular state that is being amended and NOT print and file others?

I have the same problem.
