You asked: "If i'm filing efile returns how do I attach my w2 1099?"

With electronic filing you don't have to "attach" a W-2, 1099, etc. You merely enter the info into the return. The IRS will get its copy of the W-2, 1099, etc. from the source that provided it.

The beauty of electronic filing is that nothing has to be attached or mailed in the vast majority of cases, with a few rare exceptions like the 1099-B option I mentioned in my next comment below.

Addendum:

You didn't say what kind of 1099, so I answered generically above. If it happens to be a 1099-B with a lot of investment transactions, instead of entering all the individual sales, the program does have an optional method where one can choose to enter a summary and then mail a sales statement showing the transactions to the IRS. But without more info, it doesn't sound like that is what you are asking. Plus you appear to be using Free Edition, which doesn't allow for 1099-B anyway.
