E-filing a 2018 Michigan 1040 amended tax return

Can I E-file a 2018 Michigan Amended 1040, OR do I have to mail it in on a paper return ?

On the fed info worksheet, you'll find a drop down list of states that you can Efile their amended returns....if Michigan isnt in the list, it has to be paper filed.

Michigan is one of the states you can efile alone

My question is more specific to the Proseries Software.  

Will the Intuit server accept a Michigan Amended return from my 2018 Proseries Software in 2021 ?

The Proseries 2020 Software for Michigan seems to only let you amend and Efile a 2020 Michigan tax return (Not a 2018).

Thus, do I have to do it on paper to mail in ?

Don't know about MI, but WI amended returns have to be mailed in.

Youd need to use the 2018 program to Efile any type of 2018 return.

I'm trying to efile an amended 2020 Michigan state-only return, when I click on Efile Now button the efile window shows Michigan Amended Return status "Not Ready" with reason Michigan Return is not completed.  I don't have any errors to fix and have checked the efile box on fed info worksheet for Michigan.  In the same window the Michigan State-Only option shows "Ready".  Do I efile the Michigan State-Only return instead of Michigan Amended Return?  I have files attached that need to be sent with the amended return.
