how to hold off filing a state tax and file others on online version?

[nbhardwaj]

Hi,

Turbotax is making two mistakes in my taxes thus increasing my taxes on my residence state (NJ). So, I only want to file my federal and other state taxes (NC and NY) and want to mail in my NJ taxes. How can I do that in the online version of Turbotax Premium? It directly takes me to "Transmit my taxes" screen without giving me an option of choosing what all I want to file. If I click that, can I still choose what I want to file later or is that the final screen?
I have to say I've been pretty unhappy with the support I get on the phone (they always go on "researching mode"). Also, I found those 2 mistakes by diligently comparing this year's taxes with previous years' from a CPA. When I called the tax experts up, they either did not know, or gave me a different answer each time. It's been pretty frustrating.

This community has been way more helpful so pls let me know how can I hold off my NJ taxes. 

Thanks so much in advance!

So, a development: I found a way to juice filing for New Jersey by mail (by changing from "e-file" to "File by Mail" in Step 3 under Filing. So two questions:

1. When I click "transmit my taxes", it will not transmit my NJ taxes (only transmit my federal, NY and NC taxes), correct? In other words, is is true that no information from TurboTax will be sent to New Jersey state, as that information is incorrect.

2. I printed my NJ taxes forms and corrected them. Will TurboTax give me enough instructions on how to file my taxes by mail?

Thanks you so much!

The first page  signature page of the NJ-1040 tells you where to mail it.

Thanks @fanfare for coming to my rescue. One last thing:

So if change filing for New Jersey from "e-file" to "File by Mail" in Step 3 under Filing, when I click "transmit my taxes", it will not transmit my NJ taxes (only transmit my federal, NY and NC taxes), correct? In other words,  no information from TurboTax will be sent to New Jersey state? 
Thanks so much!

Do you not trust TurboTax to follow your instructions?

Hi,

I just want to make sure that TT does not file my NJ taxes because there are 2 glaring mistakes on those docs. Plus it's my first time using TT. So that's why I wanna make sure that when I transmit my taxes, it does not send any info to the NJ state if I have used mail option for NJ. Can you pls confirm that? Thanks so much!

I'm not in a position to vouch for TurboTax proper behavior.
