If you haven't already actually mailed your return, you can switch the filing method to efile.   If you already physically mailed it, it's too late.   But if you simply want to change filing methods for your unfiled return, here's how:

You said you are not seeing the menu options.  You have to first open the return interview back up in order to have a full left column menu.   Here's how to do that:

• Log into your account, and at the Tax Home look for a link "Add a State."
• Click on "Add a State."  (That doesn't really add one; that's just to open the return.)
• Once the return interview is open, if needed you can make any changes in your return you need to, if it has not been filed.
• Then go through the REVIEW section to be sure everything is still in order.
• Then go to the FILE section, progress through the screens there, and change the filing method to efile.
• Then continue on answering all the remaining screens and at the final step click a big orange button "Transmit Returns Now."
