I have a taxpayer that would benefit from MFJ for federal.  The taxpayer and spouse married during the year and the spouse needs to file half year with OH (needs to be MFJ) and as part year resident for IL (so it makes sense to file MFS).  How do I tell Lacerte to do this?  It doesn't give the option to choose filing status for the state returns.  If I did another return for just state, then how would it efile without federal?
