Yes, you are not required to file your state return at the same time as federal.  

 

According to Can I file my federal taxes now and skip my state for later?, there are 2 options to do this in TurboTax Online:

 

Or

  • "When you get to the We've determined the easiest way to file your taxes screen, select Change next to your state return. On the Change filing method screen, select I'm not ready to file and Save."
