How can I e-file a state return when another prepare completed the federal return?

Might depend on the state...some have to piggyback the federal return.

Youd have to recreate the federal return in ProSeries, then only mark the state return for Efiling and see if it can be Efiled alone.

Its for the state of Mississippi. I recreated the federal and it still would not e-file without federal. I was hoping that it was something I was just missing.

Just as £isa says.  Here's a list of the states that allow standalone vs piggyback e-filing: https://accountants-community.intuit.com/articles/1606410-ef-atlas-federal-state-ef-method-standalon...
