The only way this works is if there are no errors in the federal return, even though you are not e-filing the federal return.

Once the federal is accepted, you can print out the acknowledgement, then go in and uncheck the EF boxes on the fed info worksheet, save and exit the return, that should remove the duplicate SSN message on the states in the EFCenter.

Thanks, Lisa.  I've tried that, but keep getting an error message 'The federal return failed final review'.  This is different than in prior years, and I can't figure out the fix.
