different filing status for state

[matthewgardner]

Allow different filing status for federal and state returns.  (IA returns are preferred to be married filing separate).  Currently a pain to go back and redo it before filing each.

It's been a while but Iowa used to have "Married And Filing Separate on Combined Form" option -- that doesn't work anymore?

Yes, Iowa still does have MFSCF status, but I couldn't find it.  Support indicated I should file federal joint, then go back and change and then file the state.  But I later found the option to have a different state filing status.
